Spray Technique (fig. 4)
General
•
The spray movement should come from the arm, not just from the wrist. This ensures
that a uniform distance is maintained between the spray gun and the spray surface
during the spray operation.
Important: Start at the edge of the area to be sprayed. Start the spray movement first
of all, and then press the trigger. Avoid interruptions within the area to be
sprayed.
Undercoats, sealing primer
•
Select a distance of about 15-20 cm and a low flow rate.
Masonry paint, fine plaster, structured paint
•
Select a distance of 15-20 cm, depending on the desired spray jet width.
•
For masonry paint select a medium or high flow rate.
•
For fine plaster, the material flow should be adjusted to the grain size. When using
larger grain sizes (e.g. 1 mm) a high flow rate should be set.
•
Apply the masonry paint and fine plaster in a criss-cross movement (fig. 9).
If necessary, spray another 1-2 layers (allowing the material to dry first).
With fine plaster the final result cannot be evaluated until it has dried. Therefore
i
wait about 20-30 minutes until the first layer is dry before you start touching-
up the wall.
The flow rate for fine plaster is lower than when using undercoat.
i
You therefore work more slowly in order to attain an even application.
For further information on setting the spray pattern and the correct spraying
technique refer to the instructions of the basic device.
