Best for Doors, Trim: YATTICH Paint Sprayer

Like any tool, some paint sprayers are better suited for certain jobs than others. Case in point: this sprayer by YATTICH. It is our pick if you need to paint doors or trim. That’s because you can adjust the pressure of the spray as well as the spray pattern.

One tip for using a paint sprayer: consider running it briefly with some water to check for any leaks from the hoses or fittings. That way you’ll discover a leak without wasting paint or making a mess!
