Painters usually don't care about the finer details of sprinklers. They paint over the concealed heads. The air gap is plugged. Activation is delayed. With several layers I will guess delayed significantly. If I was a owner depending on sprinklers for safety in my assembly occupancy or public spaces such as Marriott, and I was now armed with this information, I would think again about the aesthetics of concealed sprinklers. Looks good on paper, but they don't give what you pay for.
