flow rate or capacity the sprayer can
accommodate. Pump flow rate is
measured in gallons per minute (GPM).
PATTERN WIDTH
Thickness of the paint coat is
determined by spray tip “fan width,”
rate of the spray gun movement, and
distance to surface.
SPRAY TIP SELECTION
Two tips having the same tip size, but
different pattern widths, will deliver
the same amount of paint over a
different area (wider or narrower
strip).
A spray tip with a narrow pattern
width makes it easy to spray in tight
places.
SPRAY TIP REPLACEMENT
During use, especially with latex paint,
high pressure will cause the orifice to
grow larger. This destroys the pattern.
Replace tips before they become
excessively worn. Worn tips waste
paint, cause overspray, make cutting-in
difficult, and decrease sprayer
performance.
