Page 8: Know Your Coatings
4 Know Your Coatings 4.1 Coating Properties Coatings are a blend of resins and additives to create a product that will provide a protective and beautifying surface to your work piece. Different resins have different properties. It is important to use the correct coating to achieve a desired result. Manufacturers of coatings can control the resin solids content, production viscosity, sheen, color, flow-out enhancement and other properties. -
Page 9: Technique
4.3 Technique Like any skill, practice makes perfect. Never try to rush the spray finishing process. Learn the characteristics of the coating you will be spraying. Build up layers of material (3-4 applications or more if necessary). Sand between coats and allow proper drying time between applications. -

5 Using Pressure Pots with Turbine Systems There are many advantages to using pressure pots with a turbine system. Apollo Sprayers have made this very easy with our fluid feed systems, 4500 and 4550. Refer to the accessories section of this manual for more information on these and other products. -
Page 11: Testing Air Pressure In Pressure Pot
5.1 Testing Air Pressure In Pressure Pot It is necessary to test the air pressure in the pressure pot to make sure that it is appropriate for the viscosity of material being sprayed and the situation in which it is being sprayed. You don’t want the material coming out too quickly so that you get runs and sags, but you also don’t want it to come out too slowly so that you are spraying very slowly. -

8.2 Filter Maintenance Visually check your filters every 10 hours or when you remove your pre-filters for cleaning. Check for accumulated material in the filter element.
