Getting Started with Basic
Techniques
Use a piece of scrap cardboard to practice these basic
spraying techniques before you begin spraying the sur-
face.
Hold sprayer 10 in. (25 cm) from surface and aim
straight at surface. Tilting sprayer to direct spray angle
causes an uneven finish.
Flex wrist to keep sprayer pointed straight. Fanning
sprayer to direct spray at angle causes uneven finish.
NOTE: How fast you move the sprayer will affect spray
application. If material is pulsating (see below), you are
moving too fast. If material runs, you are moving too
slow. See Troubleshooting, page 24.
Triggering Sprayer
Pull trigger after starting stroke. Release trigger before
end of stroke. Sprayer must be moving when trigger is
pulled and released.
Aiming Sprayer
Aim tip of sprayer at bottom edge of previous stroke,
overlapping each stroke by half.
