Coating Progress (Spray)

2002-12-16 by Mark Tucker <mark@marktucker.com>

I received this week a "thick needle" from Campbell Hausfield for 
my sprayer. It's a needle that's designed for thicker viscosity 
liquids. The all-purpose is the one that ships with the sprayer; 
the thick needle is an option that you can easily order direct from 
their site.

I also found that I had one junction in the air hose that was quite 
loose. It was reducing my pressure and volume, due to the leak 
of air. Once I fixed that, and got the new needle on, I'm spraying 
with little or no problems. I just sprayed a 24x30 Somerset Velvet 
505 sheet, and it worked great. I hung the print at about a 45 
degree angle, hanging vertically. 

Now that the sprayer is all tweaked out, you have to use the knob 
to turn down the volume, which is a nice change.

I am using Satin Hydrocote Poly.
