Spraying Techniques
General Spraying Techniques
1. Select proper fluid set. To determine correct fluid
set see charts on page 10.
2. When fluid is first applied, start with fluid nozzle
and air cap adjusted to "normal spray pattern"
position. Then adjust as needed. See Fig. 10 for
pattern size adjustment.
3. Keep gun perpendicular to surface and maintain
consistent distance of approximately 6 to 8 inches
(150 to 200 mm) from object being sprayed.
See Fig. 13.

4. Always have spray gun in motion before triggering.
Move spray gun across workpiece in straight,
smooth, stroke. Maintaining speed and distance.
Release trigger at end of stroke.
5. To obtain even finish, overlap previous strokes
by 50%.
6. Apply full, wet coat whenever possible.
Automotive Spraying Techniques
1. When blending spots, work from outside in.
2. Two lengths of 20 foot (6.1 m) hose are recom-
mended when applying automotive finish coats.
Additional hose allows air to cool for better flow.
