Spraying offers loads of benefits to your business. It allows you to finish a job more quickly, letting you move onto your next project and helping you book more jobs into your diary. It also offers a smoother finish, giving your customers the high-quality outcome that they demand.

As Tony Pearson-Young from Dulux Academy says: "Upskilling with new techniques such as spray application is one of the quickest and easiest ways appliers can build their business offering.
