An HVLP sprayer, or High Volume Low Pressure sprayer, is a type of paint sprayer designed to deliver a fine mist of paint with minimal overspray. It operates by using a high volume of air at low pressure, which helps to atomize the paint into small particles. This results in a smooth finish and efficient paint application, making it popular for both professional and DIY projects. HVLP sprayers are commonly used for tasks such as painting furniture, cabinets, and walls. They are favored for their ability to provide a controlled spray pattern, reducing waste and ensuring even coverage. Many models are compatible with various types of paint, including latex, oil-based, and stains.
