Tips On Using Aerosols
PREPARATION IS THE KEY Make sure the surface is clean and
free from dust before application.
SHAKE IT UP It is important to shake the can thoroughly (2 or 3
minutes) before you start to ensure all the contents are dispersed
evenly. It is also recommended that you continue to shake every
couple of minutes during application.
TAKE IT LIGHTLY With most aerosol finishes it is better to apply
several light coats than 1 or 2 heavy coats. This will help avoid
runs and assist a smoother finish. It is also recommended to wait
up to 10 minutes between coats.
OVERSHOOT When applying, always overshoot the edges. As
you spray accross the surface, continue the motion until well past
the edge. This way you will end up with a consistent coating from
edge to edge.
PROPER DISTANCE It is generally best to hold the can 300mm to
400mm from the surface to give you optimum coverage.
WATCH YOUR SPEED The speed you move when applying can
make a big difference. Low speed can lead to sags and runs. Too
high speed can result in poor coverage and a rough ‘dry’ finish.
Consistency in speed is the key.
STAY PARALLEL The spray pattern from aerosol cans is cone
shaped. So it is essential to keep the can running parallel to the
surface when applying - in short keep your wrist and the can
straight.
KEEP NOOZLE CLEAN By inverting can after use and continue to
spray until spray runs clear. Replacement nozzles are available on
application.
