You figure it out let me know, our house could use paint too. Bucket truck sounds like an awesome idea but probably not financially reasonable.My wife wants the exterior of the house painted this summer. Not looking forward to that. I do have a commercial airless sprayer that will pump straight from a 5 gallon bucket. But not sure how to get to the 3rd floor or the gutters on the back of the house. Scaffolding may be the only solution?
