Spray Pattern Quality

A good spray pattern is evenly distributed as it hits the sur- face. Adjust pressure control knob so pressure is just high enough to spray without “tails”. If tails persist at highest pressure setting, a smaller tip is needed to spray the mate- rial or material may need to be thinned.
