Getting Started With Basic Techniques

Getting Started With Basic Techniques

Use a piece of scrap cardboard to practice these basic 
spraying techniques before you begin spraying the sur-
face.

Hold gun 12 in. (30 cm) from surface and aim 
straight at surface. Tilting gun to direct spray angle 
causes an uneven finish.

Flex wrist to keep gun pointed straight. Fanning gun 
to direct spray at angle causes uneven finish.

Triggering Gun

Pull trigger after starting stroke. Release trigger before 
end of stroke. Gun must be moving when trigger is 
pulled and released.

Aiming Gun

Aim tip of gun at bottom edge of previous stroke, over-
lapping each stroke by half.
