Before spraying, the material being used may need to be thinned. Never exceed the thinning advice
given by the coating manufacturer.
If thinning is necessary, use the proper solvent as specified by the material manufacturer.

Only thin the material if absolutely necessary to improve spray performance. Optimal
spray performance should be acheived simply by adjusting the various controls on
the unit.
