Using instructions
The most presto spray paints have a so-called no-spray ring or a tamper-proof cap. This is to avoid unauthorized use. Please see the corresponding advises on the cap or on the label.
Before use, carefully read and observe the warning texts on the labels!
Application spray can:
- Bring can to room temperature.
- Operating temperature 5° to 30°C.
- Surface should be clean, dry and free of grease.
- Shake can for 2 minutes before use.
- Spray on a thin coat.
- A protective, transparent film remains once evaporated.
- After use, turn can upside down and spray empty.
Application spray gun can:
- For best results, the product should have room temperature.
- Shake well before use.
- Surface should be clean, dry and free of grease.
- Application with a pressure pot gun with an air-pressure of 3-4 bar.
- Spray gun can be cleaned in "fresh" condition with solvents.
Tips for spray painting
Protect the object and the surrounding area from spray mist. When painting small areas it is recommended that a piece of card is used as a mask, with a hole cut in it slightly larger than the area to be sprayed. The mask should be held 1 to 2 cm from the surface. With this method, the mainly part of the spray mist is brought under control. It recommends to mask parts not to be lacquered, to protect the surrounding against the spray mist.
The aerosol can should have room temperature.
Temperature should range between +10°C and +25°C, max. air humidity 60 %.
Store in a dry place. Protect from direct sunlight and other sources of heat. Use only during dry weather, in places protected from the wind, and in well-ventilated rooms. Follow the warning texts on the labels!
