PREP
ARING THE SPRAY AREA
In order to create an area acceptable for electrostatic spraying, there are pre-spraying procedures that one
must follow. Please familiarize yourself with the following scenarios:
1.
An interior area that is spotless
—this scenario requires no preparatory work prior to spraying.
2.
An interior area with loose debris on the floor
—this scenario would require a clean sweeping of
the area prior to spraying.
3.
Walls, floors, or ceilings with materials stuck to them
—this scenario would require utilizing a
scrub brush with cleaner to remove unwanted materials and/or using a scraping instrument (chisel,
putty knife, etc.) to scrape off stubborn foreign materials.
4. Once the area has been cleared of foreign objects and debris, you are ready for the electrostatic
spraying process.
SPRA
Y TECHNIQUE
1. Before starting, it should be known that there will be a momentary delay before liquid will be present.
This is due to the fact that on an empty system, liquid must travel down the full length of the hose.
2. Once spraying, choose a starting point near the rear of the room. Starting where the wall meets the ceiling
and using a sweeping left to right motion, start spraying back and forth. Move your spray pattern downward
until you have reached where the wall meets the floor. Make sure to work in a methodical zig-zag pattern
and to let your strokes overlap when moving to the next section.
3. Continue this process until you have gone completely around the entire room and return to your original
starting point.
4. Using the same approach, begin spraying the ceiling. Once the ceiling is completed, your last function
will be to spray the floor.
5. Allow the treated area dry to sit as listed on the chemical label.
Note: Do not over-saturate the surface; if you see runs or puddles you are applying too much
chemical.
As in spray painting, the goal is to achieve even coverage over the surface area. The Sprayer is designed to
help you do just that. The spray droplets propelled from the gun are very, very fine— about 40 microns each.
This means that the target surface area should just barely glisten with moisture and will evaporate quickly,
contrary to conventional units that leave large beads of liquid on the target. 4the surface area. The Sprayer
