spraying on the outside is fast but can lead to major trouble later.
brushing washes the new paint into the old helping adhesion a lot.
paint sprayed doesnt adhere as well you will be fighting peeling paint
forever or till you move
be concerned about overspray too. all that extra paint has to go
somewhere....
trees bushes grass nearby vehicles concrete homes espically if its
breezy when sprayed. supervise this painter very carefully
