To ensure that there are no particles clogging the nozzles, we recommend to clean the coating material with a material filter positioned in front of the fluid connection (high pressure material filters can be purchased from Krautzberger GmbH). To achieve a unified coating thickness for high-quality coatings, a cross-coating process is recommended, which means that the area is first coated in horizontal lines and then in vertical lines.
