I have seen it used some years ago, but only by the contractor who used
cheap paint and cheaper painters. The results were not very even, but it
was fast.

My suggestion is to pass on the idea. If the walls are too tall to pant
easy with a roller, they are not going to be any easier to paint with a
spray gun.

BTW is he talking about the machine that sits in the middle of the room
and just sprays everything?

A question for the painting experts in the group:

The walls of my living room are 20' high. I got a bid from a painter
who says that it is better to use a paint spray machine to paint the
walls of the living room, since the height of the walls makes it more
difficult to use rollers and that some unwanted streaking will occur
while using rollers. The spray paint, he says, will give a uniform
finish.

On the other hand, a few of my friends say that they have never heard
of anyone using a spray paint machine to paint the interior walls
while the room is furnished, and that their walls have always been
painted with rollers.

Can anyone confirm whether it is unusual to spray paint the living
room walls? Will painting with rollers yield uneveness or streaking?

Thanks!
