OPERATION
Proper handling of the gun is essential for obtaining a good finish. The gun should be held at right angle
to the surface being covered, moving parallel with the surface. For precise control of the gun and material,
the trigger should be released before the end of the stroke.
Hold the gun from 6 to 12 inches (15,24cm to 30,48cm) away from the surface depending on material
and atomizing pressure. For a uniform finish, lap each stroke over the preceding stroke, making sure the
spray is smooth and wet.
Using the lowest possible atomizing air pressure will reduce over-spray and provide maximum efficiency.
