Spraying Instructions
Professional looking results can be
obtained by following the spray tips
below.
1. Keep the gun perpendicular to the
surface.
Always hold the gun perpendicular
to the surface with the tip
approximately 12 inches from the
surface. If held at an angle (up
and down or side to side), paint
will build up unevenly, leave the
work splotchy, and cause excessive
overspray (See Figure to the right).
2. Move with a smooth arm stroke.
Move the gun at a steady, even
pace while keeping the gun
perpendicular to the surface (See
Figures to the right). Do not fan
the gun. Fanning the gun will cause
excessive overspray and uneven
coverage (See Figure to the right).
3. Start moving the gun before
triggering.
To get a smooth overlap and prevent
initial paint buildup, start your
stroke movement before pulling the
trigger. Release the trigger before
stopping at the end of the stroke
(See Figure to the right).
NOTE: To assure uniform paint
coverage, overlap each stroke by 20%
- 30% and use two coats with a cross
pattern (one coat horizontal, second
coat vertical).
