Applying the Fluid
When using the HVLP spray gun, instead of a conven-
tional airspray gun, you may need to use a slightly
slower hand movement and make fewer passes with the
gun to coat a part. This is due to the reduced spray
velocity produced by lower HVLP air pressures, along
with a larger fluid particle size because there is less air
to blow off solvents than what is produced by conven-
tional airspray. Take care to avoid runs or sags as you
spray.

1. To achieve the best results when applying fluid:
• Keep the gun perpendicular and 6 to 8 inches
(150 to 200 mm) from the object being sprayed.
• Use smooth, parallel strokes across the surface
to be sprayed with 50% overlap.
