Definitely could use some advice on sealing decks. I've been working on technique this summer and have made good progress, but still a rookie. I typically use Olympic Maximum and have had good results with applying with Shurline sealing pads (I use the seven inch pads to cut in, then the 18 inch pads to do the rest of the floor), painters mitts, brushes, etc. This allows for very little prep time around the house. Like everyone else seems to, I have tried lots of methods to speed up the vertical stuff.....Have had trouble with airless--way too much overspray (any advice on removing overspray film from my truck's paint and windows would be appreciated as well!). My question: If I primarily want quick spraying of verticals and don't need to spray floor and near house, are HVLP's a good way to go? Do they really cut down on overspray as advertised? I've been looking at Wagner's 2600/2900 as well as the conversion gun for an air compressor.....thanks!
