• Preparing the surface to be sprayed is important to carry out a good job. Thin the paint or product to gain the right
viscosity before applying.
• Double check always the surface to be sprayed is free of dust, dirt or grease.
• Make sure to cover with adhesive tape, some newspaper and/or plastic those areas that do not require spraying.
• Paint or product to be sprayed shall be mixed perfectly before filling the jar to prevent settling and make them lump-free.
• Before buying the product read the manufacturer recommendations.
Thinning the material
• Most paints are sold ready to be used with a brush. They
need to be thinned before applying with a paint gun.
Follow the manufacturer's instructions to correctly thin the
material.
• Adding a thinner is recommended. Add 5 to 10% until
reaching the right viscosity to apply the material.
• Use the din 4 viscosity flow cup (not included) to
determine the paint right viscosity. Viscosity is determined
by counting the seconds it takes for the material to be
discharged into the measuring glass. The following table
shows the recommended times for different products.

• If after thinning the product
the dispersion capacity is too
low add thinner. Add slowly
from 5 to 10 % until the
dispersion capacity meets
your needs.
• If the paint is too thick, the
painted surface will be too
rough (orange peel). If the
paint is too liquid, there is
risk of dripping.

Preparation
Filling the Jar
• Unscrew the paint gun jar to fill up with paint. Close
the cap to prevent spilling.
• The jar can easily be filled up during the paint process.
• The jar shall not be tilted more than 30° from the
vertical to assure a continuous paint flow (A).
• In the event the job requires tilting the gun more than
30° you can adjust the jar to compensate the vertical and
keep the paint flow running (B).
