Spray Gun Accessories

Knowing when and how to replace parts is critical to achieving optimal performance and getting the best value for your equipment investment. Two key factors drive this dynamic:

Control testing: Be sure to perform a flow test to see if the gun nozzle or spray tip needs to be replaced. This is as simple as spraying paint into a beaker for 30 seconds and comparing it to a benchmark volume. Also, be sure to test your spray pattern against the benchmark.

Proper Startup, Shutdown, and Storage: Always clean the gun after (or during, depending on use) your shift. The gun needs to be flushed internally and wiped down externally. Never leave paint or material in the gun overnight; even a few hours can clog ports, leave residue, and may render the gun inoperable. Proper maintenance of the gun will reduce maintenance intervals and improve overall performance.

Replacing spray gun accessories at the right time is crucial for maintaining optimal performance and achieving high-quality finishes.

Regular inspection and timely replacement of spray gun accessories are essential for keeping your equipment in top condition and delivering consistent, high-quality results. Keep an eye on performance indicators, signs of wear, and specific manufacturer recommendations to determine when to replace each accessory.
