Do airless paint sprayers use more paint than painting with brush or roller?

An airless sprayer works pretty much like a squirt gun. The paint is pumped by the sprayer through a nozzle where it's broken up into fine, fine droplets. An air paint sprayen hasn't got a pump, it relies on a steady supply of pressurized air to force the paint through a nozzle instead.

If you are doing lower volume work with thinner paints like alkyd oils, lacquers or automotive enamels, then a cup gun, either HVLP or high pressure air would work better.

Why did Norman Breakey invented paint roller?
well I wasn't there -indeed I was born in June of that year but I imagine it went something like this: big double brick room 30 feet by 15. And the wife just has to change the colour! If any of you have painted such a room (I painted the whole house) you'll know when you just do the edges with a brush that you're thinking "there has to be a better way!". And there is. The edging with a brush takes for hours -the painting with a roller takes minutes! Thank you Norman Breakey!
