It is important to “trigger” the gun after gun movement
(arm movement) has started and release trigger (shut gun
off) before gun movement ends. Gun movement is always
longer than actual paint (spray) stroke. In that manner, even
blending and uniform paint coat thickness is achieved over
the entire surface. When the gun is in motion as the trigger
is pulled, it deposits an even amount of paint.
Overlap the previous pass by half the width of the spray
pattern. Aim at the bottom of the previous pass.
Always use the lowest pressure possible to obtain desirable
results.
Test the spray pattern on a piece of cardbord or other
surface.
“Inside” and “outside” corners can be sprayed.
Aim the spray gun toward the center of the corner. The
spray pattern is divided in half andthe edges of the spray
pattern on both walls are the same.
Adjust pressure control knob so that paint is completely
atomized from the spray gun. Insufcient pressure will
result in “tailing. Too much pressure will result in excessive
fog and overspray, excessive tip wear, and increased
sprayer wear and tear.
Spray with uniform strokes from left to right and from
right to left, holding stroke speed, distance, lapping, and
triggering as uniform as possible.
