SPRAYING TECHNIQUE
Hold the paint spray gun upright and maintain a constant distance of
about 3 - 20 cm to the object being sprayed.
Move the paint spray gun evenly either from side to side or up and
down. If the gun is moved evenly, it will produce an even surface finish.
No runs will occur if the speed is correct.
Always start spraying away from the object and avoid stopping
spraying whilst still on the object.
If the round jet setting is used, the distance may be
i
increased according to the size of the object being
sprayed.
•
In case of excessive paint mist formation, adjust the air and material
flow respectively and alter the distance from the object.
