Keep your wrist straight and parallel to the surface.
If you bend your wrist or arm while painting, the angle of the spray may lead to a heavy
paint formation in certain areas, resulting in an uneven finish.
TIP
– Never spray the container completely empty, when the suction tube
on longer immerses in the spray material, air bubbles will be created
causing a break in the flow from the jet spray, resulting in an uneven spray
pattern.
