Yup, you could use hvlp or you could use an artists brush. Go with a 1/2"
wide brush and you can paint twice as fast as a 1/4" brush! (GRIN)

We own and use several spray systems - hvlp professional, hvlp homeowner,
Airless professional, Airless homeowner, Conventional homeowner.

You would be better off renting an airless sprayer or using brush and
roller. HVLP would work but would be painfully slow. A homeowner quality
hvlp like the Harbor Freight or the Wagner Control Spray would be even
slower than a professional hvlp system.

I love our hvlp sprayers including our Wagner Control Spray, but we only use
them on small projects like painting doors, spraying car parts, and
finishing furniture.

Have fun,

I'm wondering if those high volume low pressure paint equipment can be
used for house painting.

I realize the tank only hold a pint, but the work would be a lot
easier, and there is less overspray so the pint would go a lot
farther.

So, would the equipment handle alkyd, acrylic and latex?
