4. USE OF THE MACHINE (continued)
4.2. ATOMIZATION (continued)
So that the paint is at the ideal viscosity, use the viscosimeter delivered with the turbine.
Dilute a part of the paint with the appropriate thinner.
Fill the viscosimeter to the top and let the liquid flow and monitor the time it takes until the trickle
of paint becomes discontinuous.
Check to see if the time corresponds to the indications in the table below:
- if the time is longer, increase the dilution
- if the time is shorter, add more paint
