Material
Preparation
Before
spraying,
the
material
being
used
may
need
to
be
thinned
with
the
proper
solvent
as
specified
by
the
material
manufacturer.
Never
exceed
the
thinning
advice
given
by
the
coating
manufacturer.
Do
not
use
materials
with
a
flashpoint
below
70°F
(21°C).
Follow
the
instructions
below.
1.
Stir
the
spraying
material
thoroughly
before
measuring
viscosity.
2.
Dip
the
viscosity
test
cup
completely
into
the
spraying
material.
3.
Hold
the
test
cup
up
and
measure
the
time
in
seconds
until
the
liquid
empties
out.
This
time
is
referred

be
strained
to
remove
any
impurities
in
the

Impurities
in
the
paint
will
give
poor
performance
and
a
poor
finish.
