Material Preparation

note: Material to be sprayed may need to be strained

to remove any impurities in the paint which may enter

and clog the system. Impurities in the paint will give

poor performance and a poor finish.
note: Only thin the material if absolutely necessary to

improve spray performance (or if advised by coating

manufactuer). Optimal spray performance should be

acheived simply by adjusting the various controls on

the unit.

Thinning the material:

For certain spraying situations or desired finishes,

thinning the material may be desired. It is not necessary

for most materials when used with the iSpray nozzle.

For use with the Detail Finish nozzle thinning may be

needed to acheive a finer finish. Make sure you adjust

the X-Boost™ and Material Flow settings for your specific

material needs.
If thinning is necessary, use the proper solvent as

specified by the material manufacturer. Never exceed the

thinning advice given by the coating manufacturer.

Do not thin with materials that have

a flashpoint below 100°F (38°C). The

material flashpoint should be shown on

the material container.

To Prepare the Material:

1. Stir the spraying material thoroughly.
2. Unscrew the cup from the nozzle.
3. After the material has been properly thinned and

strained, fill the container to desired level. Do not

attach the container to the nozzle yet.
