Spraying technique

Hold the paint spray gun upright and maintain a constant
distance of about 3 - 20 cm to the object being sprayed.
Move the paint spray gun evenly either from side to side or
up and down. If the gun is moved evenly, it will produce an
even surface finish. No runs will occur if the speed is correct.
Always start spraying away from the object and avoid stop-
ping spraying whilst still on the object.
Note: If the round jet setting is used, the distance may be in-
creased according to the size of the object being sprayed.
•
In case of excessive paint mist formation, adjust the air
and material flow respectively and alter the distance from
the object.
