used with slow drying,
heavy bodied materials
and for faster material
application. NOT to be used with fast

clog the opening in the air cap.
INTERNAL MIX CAPS MUST BE USED
WITH PRESSURE FEED operation.
External Mix—Used for
quick drying, light bodied
materials such as lacquers
and synthetic enamels.
Better for finer finish work. THESE
CAPS CAN BE USED WITH EITHER
SIPHON OR PRESSURE FEED.
