I painted my fathers house once with an airless sprayer. (oil based
stain, actually) Never again. By the time I was done my arm was
about ready to fall off. A half gallon of paint or stain weighs a ton
when you have been holding it up for a while. The only way to
really paint is with a paint pot and an air compressor.
