Professional interior work typically necessitates the use of a spray grade adhesive, applied with a spray gun and air compressor. You may need a 1.7-2.2 mm nozzle. One inexpensive example is this [http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/ctaf/Displayitem.taf?itemnumber=43760 $20 paint spray gun], available from [[Harbor Freight]]. The gun pictured is an HVLP gun that has external mix, meaning the adhesive and air are mixed at the end of the nozzle. This feature keeps the gun from getting full of adhesive. You can keep the adhesive in the gun cup for long periods of time and still be able to spray right away, without having to empty the cup and clean the gun. | Professional interior work typically necessitates the use of a spray grade adhesive, applied with a spray gun and air compressor.
