  • Page 16: Spraying Technique

    1. The key to a good paint job is an even coating over the entire surface. With spray painting, this is done by using even strokes, with your arm moving at a con- stant speed and keeping the spray gun a constant distance from the surface.
  • Page 17 5. The spray gun should be triggered off at the end of each stroke and on again at the beginning of the next. This avoids paint buildup at the end of the stroke which may result in runs and sags. Triggering at the end of the stroke also saves paint and results in a better looking job.
  • Page 18 Continued from page 17 Cleaning The Spray Gun Filter The spray gun includes a filter to catch particles before they reach the spray tip. If this filter becomes clogged or obstructed it will reduce the flow of paint, changing the spray pattern and possibly damaging the filter.
  • Page 19: Short Term Storage

    SHORT-TERM/OVERNIGHT STORAGE Shut-down 1. Lock the gun and reduce the pressure. Turn the sprayer to prime A and shut it off. Unplug sprayer. Leave the suction set in the paint. Refer to Pressure Relief Procedure. 2. For latex materials only, pour 1/2 cup water slowly on the top of the paint to prevent the paint from drying.
