Spraying mixes Lines
To spray a fine or wide line, start moving the airbrush with the trigger pushed down for air. Then pull
the trigger back for paint flow at the beginning of the line and stop paint flow at the end, but continue
the motion of the airbrush.
- A longer distance to the surface produces wider lines .
- A shorter distance to the surface produces narrower lines .
- Increased air pressure increases spray width.
- Decreased air pressure decreases spray width.
During application, the amount of product can be
reduced by turning the product regulator, reducing
the pressure applied in the trigger with one's finger.
Stippling (Dots)
The Sagola XTech airbrushes are designed to produce a wide range of stippling textures .
Stippling (coarse or fine dots) can add special textured effects to artwork.
Simply remove the needle cap and air nozzle cap and adjust the air pressure between 0,3-2 bar (5
and 30 psi) Lower air pressure will produce coarse dots; higher pressure will produce fine dots. Paint
viscosity affects stippling, as well.
