Makita cordless spray gun

A cordless spray gun, often referred to as a cordless paint sprayer, is a portable, battery-powered tool used to apply paint, stains, and other coatings. They offer great mobility since you are not tethered to an electrical outlet.

Cordless spray guns generally fall into two main types based on how they atomize the coating:

1. HVLP (High Volume Low Pressure) Sprayers:
   • Use a high volume of air at a low pressure to atomize the paint.
   • Best for achieving a fine, professional-quality finish with minimal overspray.
   • Ideal for smaller, more detailed projects like furniture, cabinets, trim, and crafts.
   • Many household-grade cordless spray guns are HVLP.
2. Airless Sprayers (Cordless Handheld):
   • Use a high-pressure pump to force unthinned paint through a small tip, atomizing it.
   • Best for faster coverage on medium-sized areas.
