The document summarizes a toolbox talk on airless spray paint application. It provides 10 topics that were discussed, including never pointing the spray gun at anyone, keeping the tip guard in place, wearing leather gloves, engaging the trigger safety when unattended, not exceeding rated pressures of hoses and pumps (maximum 5000 psi), relieving pressure before servicing, using grounded anti-static hoses, ensuring all grounds are in place and in good condition with grounding wire AWG-4 or larger, not operating if any pressure system components are not in good condition, and obtaining immediate medical care for any high pressure fluid penetration of the skin.

Airless Spray Paint Application
1. Spray guns shall never be pointed at anyone or at
any part of the body. 2. The tip guard shall always be in place on the airless gun while spraying. 3. Leather gloves shall be worn by the operator whenever the airless spray gun is in use. 4. The trigger safety catch shall be engaged whenever the airless gun is left unattended. 5. Hoses, pumps, and accessories shall never be operated at pressures exceeding their rated pressure. In no case shall the working pressure in the paint line exceed 34.5 MPa (5000 psi). Safety pressure relief valves shall be used on discharge side of the pressure pump(s). 6. The pump shall be shut down and the fluid pressure in the system relieved before servicing or cleaning any components, including clogged spray tips. 7. Hoses shall be grounded, use anti-static type hoses. 8. Airless spray equipment shall not be operated unless all grounds (earths) are in place, connected, and in good condition. Grounding wire shall be AWG-4 or larger. 9. Airless spray equipment shall not be operated if any of the pressure system components is not in good condition. 10. Emergency medical care shall be obtained immediately if any high pressure fluid from the airless equipment penetrates the skin. (High pressure fluid injection injuries can be extremely serious, including the need for amputation).
