Spraying
Start
You will need:
• Scrap material / cardboard
Notes:
If the spray pattern becomes distorted or
stops completely while the gun is triggered,
follow any or all the procedures listed on
pages 12-14.
If you plan to be away from your spray
project for more than one hour, follow the
Short Term Storage instructions on page 15.
If you have difficulty achieving a good spray
pattern, your spray tip and gun filter may
not be ideal for the type of material you are
spraying. Refer to the chart below and on
page 75.

Tip:
Trigger gun after starting the
stroke. Release the trigger
before ending the stroke. The
spray gun should be moving
when the trigger is pulled and
released. Overlap each stroke
by about 30%. This will ensure
an even coating.
