Material Preparation - WAGNER Opti-Stain Sprayer Owner's Manual

note: Before spraying, the material being used
may need to be thinned with the proper solvent
as specified by the material manufacturer. Never
exceed the thinning advice given by the coating
manufacturer.
Do not use materials with a flashpoint below 100°F
(38°C). Follow the instructions below.
To Prepare the Material:
1. Stir the spraying material thoroughly.
2. Dip the viscosity test cup completely into the
spraying material.
3. Hold the test cup up and measure the time in
seconds until the liquid empties out. This time is
referred to below as Runout Time.
4. Unscrew the cup from the nozzle.
5. After the material has been properly thinned and
strained, fill the container to desired level.
