HVLP Hints & Tips

  • Preparation is essential - remember to mask around the areas you are not spraying.
  • Take the time to ensure paint viscosity is correct. Thin paint as necessary using water or relevant thinners.
  • If you've never sprayed before, practice for a few minutes on a piece of cardboard to develop your technique.
  • Allow time for drying between coats.
  • Fine mists will generally dry faster than heavier coats. This will allow you to build up coats faster and there is less likelihood of runs.
  • Avoid spraying when windy.
