• When using latex paints, clean
your sprayer and components
using warm, soapy water.
When using oil-based paints,
use mineral spirits.
• Do not use mineral spirits on
latex paint, or the mixture will
turn into a jelly-like substance
which is difficult to remove.
• No matter which cleaning
solution you use, make sure to
dispose of it properly when
finished cleaning your sprayer.
• Thorough cleaning and
lubrication of the sprayer is
the most important step you
can take to ensure proper
operation after storage.
