DEVELOPINGTHE PROPERSPRAYINGTECHNIQUE
• Practicespraying on a piece of scrap material such as
cardboardto test your spray pattern and become familiar with the
flowcontrol feature of the sprayer.
• Ensure surface to be sprayed is free of dust, dirt, and grease.
• Ensure spray area is clean and free of dust that could be blown
onto newly sprayed surfaces.
• Cover any areas not intended to be sprayed.
•Always spray from a minimum of 1 inch (25mm) to a maximum of
14 inches (355mm) (figureG).
•A commonly used method for spraying a large surface is the
“crisscross” pattern.This is done by spraying in horizontal strips
and then crossing over these strips with vertical strips.
•To get an even spray distribution, always keep your arm at the
same distance (figureG)from the surface you are spraying and
avoid moving your wrist (figureH).
• Maintain smooth and consistent speed which will help avoid
inconsistencies. Begin spraying after the pass has begun and
release trigger before stopping the pass.
•Avoid spraying too heavily in any one area. Several lighter
coats are better than one heavy coat which can lead to running
and dripping. Remember that the flow controlknob regulates the
amountof liquid that can be sprayed. Turning the flow knob
clockwiseincreases the flow of liquid. Turning the knob
counterclockwisedecreases the flow of liquid. If runs or drips do
occur,have a dry paint brush on hand to smooth them out.
•Turn the power unit off when not spraying for any length of time.
