Spaying technique
Perform spraying tests with various settings (on a piece
of cardboard) before you start painting the workpiece.
Direct the spray device straight at the target surface from
a distance of approx. 25 cm. Angling the device to chan-
ge the direction of spray will cause uneven application.
Even application

Angle your wrist to keep the spray gun straight. Waving
with the device to change the direction of spray will cau-
se uneven application.
Even application
Note:
The speed at which you move the spray gun influences
the coating characteristic. If the spray jet pulses, you are
moving the device to fast. If the material drips, you are
moving the device too slowly. See troubleshooting on
page 25 and following.
