Spraying Techniques
GETTING STARTED
Place the furniture or object on a
dropcloth or in an area protected
from any overspray damage. It's best
if the piece can be hung so that all
surfaces can be sprayed at the same
time. If not let the coating on the
exposed surfaces dry at least 24 hours
before repositioning the piece and
painting the previously unexposed
areas.
PROPER HANDLING
The key to suc-
cessful spray
painting is
proper han-
dling of the
spray gun.
Hold the gun so
the spray tip is
perpendicular
to the surface
you are paint-
ing and about
4" to 9" away (move closer for small-
er patterns). Paint with a side-to-side
motion, keeping the gun perpendicu-
lar to the surface. Bend your wrist
slightly to keep the nozzle an even
distance away from the surface as you
move your arm back and forth.

enough to protect the corner area of
ceilings where trim meets trim.
WINDOW TRIM AND DOOR FRAMES
With the gun settings the same as
described in the crown molding sec-
tion, do the window trim and door
frames next. When spraying window
trim, you can either invest time on
the front end or add a little time to
the spraying and clean up effort for a
flawless job. If you choose the front
end, you can protect the window
glass by taping newspaper to the
panes. This requires some added prep
