6. Do not spray at an angle as this
will lead to paint runs on the
surface. Always use a smooth and
even stroke.
7. When spraying large areas, use a
criss-cross pattern as shown.
8. Never start or stop the spray gun
while it is aimed at the surface to
be sprayed. Evenly control the
speed of movement of the spray
gun.
• Moving quickly over the
surface will give a thin coat
and slow movement will give a
heavy coat.
• Apply one coat at a time. If a further coat is required, make sure you
observe the manufacturers drying time recommendations before
applying a second coat.
• When spraying small areas, keep the output control on a low setting
as this will avoid using too much paint and prevent overspray.
9. Where possible, avoid stopping and starting when spraying an object. This
can lead to too much, or not enough paint being applied.
• The material deposited should always be even and wet. Lap each
stroke over the preceding stroke to obtain a uniform finish.
• To ensure the edges are covered, start spraying just to the side of the
area being sprayed and do not stop until the spray has gone past
the opposite edge.
• Damage to the needle or nozzle, or any of the air ports, will result in a
faulty spray pattern. Take care when cleaning or assembling these
components.
