Preparation (continued)
2. Keep the nozzle about 6 to 9 inches
from the work surface throughout
the stroke and always keep the gun
in motion while spraying. Stopping
gun movement in mid-stroke will
cause a build up of paint and result
in runs. Do not fan the gun from side
to side while painting. This will cause
a build-up of paint in the center of
the stroke and an insufficient
coating at each end (See Figure 8).

3. Trigger the gun properly. Start the
gun moving at the beginning of the
stroke BEFORE SQUEEZING THE
TRIGGER and release the trigger
BEFORE STOPPING GUN
MOVEMENT at the end of the
stroke. This procedure will feather
(blend) each stroke with the next
without showing overlap or
unevenness (See Figure 9).

can be varied by the speed of the
stroke, distance from the surface and
adjustment of the fluid control knob.

5. Overlap strokes just enough to
obtain an even coat (See Figure 10).

NOTE: Two thin coats of paint will
yield better results and have less
chance of runs than one heavy layer.
6. Use a piece of cardboard as a shield
to catch overspray at the edges of
the work to protect other surfaces.
Use masking tape to cover other
areas if needed.
