FINISHING TIPS
Orange Peel: Reduce Viscosity. Increase atomization with a smaller Fluid Tip (4). Spray area
may be too cold. Spray Gun too far from object.
Sags or Runs: Move Spray Gun faster. Spray lighter coat. Increase atomization.
Wet and Milky: Finish applied too heavy. This condition is prone to trap water within coats.
Apply lighter coat.
Blushing:
Seal coat applied over solvent-based stain that has not been completely dried.
Rough Surface: Seal coat not sanded enough. Sand smooth and re-coat.
