ABOUT THE SG85.
The SG85 is a highly versatile
electric airless spray gun, it can be
used with several different spray
mediums including varnishes, wood
preservatives, enamel paint, oil
based paint and water based
paints. Airless spraying reduces the
mist associated with air spraying
and also reduces paint loss.
A number of applications can be
performed including spraying
fences, sheds, boats, furniture,
radiators, models, louvre doors etc.
IMPORTANT- SELECTING PAINT
Although a large number of paints
and materials can be sprayed,
some cannot. Please check
manufacturers recommendation
before purchasing paint.

PREPARATION
Surface preparation and paint
thinning are the two most important
areas to be concerned with to
obtain the best results from your
spray gun.
Ensure all surfaces are free from
dust, dirt and grease.
Masking is important to ensure you
do not spray those areas you wish

Ensure paint is thoroughly mixed.
THINNING
Thinning is particularly important
when spraying. Most paints are
supplied ready for brush application
and need to be sufficiently diluted
for spraying purposes.
