ABCs of Spray Painting ABCs of Spray Painting $10.00 A-2928-A Forward Table of Contents 2 While this book examines the spray finishing operation and its equipment from many viewpoints, there is still much more to be learned to become truly proficient at spray finishing. The best way to become proficient at spray finishing is to just do it! Many trade technical and community colleges offer courses in spray finishing, a great way to improve your skills. Many of the “tricks” of the professional spray finisher involve paints and coatings. The manufacturers of these materials routinely publish complete books on these subjects. These publications are available in specialty paint stores and will provide you with considerable detail. Many of these books also contain information on techniques for surface preparation. Another important source of information, particularly on equipment use and selection is your local spray finishing equipment distributor. No book could ever completely cover a specialists in-depth knowledge of equipment, techniques, maintenance and troubleshooting. Information is available from many resources on the subject of spray finishing. It is our hope that this book will provide you with a start toward perfecting your finishing skills. A recent addition to resources available to the spray finisher is the World Wide Web. Many manufactures are represented and question and answer forums are available. Please visit our websites a . t and About this book. This book has been updated several times from “The ABCs of Spray Equipment,” originally published by The DeVilbiss Company in 1954. It focuses on equipment and techniques for spray finishing. The format of the original book was question-and-answer. We have retained that format in this edition. This book is organized around the major components of an air spray system spray guns, material containers, hose, air control equipment, compressors, spray booths, respirators and a short section on general cleanliness and other sources of information. A thorough understanding of the material in this book - plus a lot of actual spray painting practice - should enable you to handle just about any spray painting situation. Although we have made an effort to make this book as detailed and as complete as possible, be aware that the equipment and product systems used to illustrate points are entirely based on DeVilbiss technology. DeVilbiss is the worlds oldest and largest manufacturer of spray painting equipment, and has maintained this leadership since its founding in 1888. Forward .2 1.

Introduction 3 This book is about the selection, use and maintenance of finishing equipment: spray guns, tanks, cups, hoses, compressors, regulators, spray booths, respirators, etc. It presumes that you are familiar with standard surface preparation techniques that may be required before finishing actually begins. It also presumes a basic knowledge of the many different types of paints and coatings available. Creating a perfect finish requires a solid knowledge of surface preparation, finishes and spray painting equipment. The first two are extensively covered in many other books. The manufacturers of paints and coatings have gone to great length to publish information on their new and existing products. But, even an extensive knowledge of surface preparation techniques and paint chemistry is not enough to assure a professional finish. The finish must be applied by a spray gun, and all the variables of its use must be mastered. The equipment necessary to apply the finish the spray gun, tank, cup, regulator, hoses, compressor, etc. must all be matched to the job as well as to each other. That equipment must be used and maintained properly, with an appreciation of how and why it works the way it does. The moment of truth for any finish happens when the trigger is pulled. This book focuses on that moment. Surface Preparation The surface to be finished should be well cleaned before painting. If the paint manufacturers instructions call for it, the surface should be chemically treated. Use a blow-off gun and tack rag to remove all dust and dirt. No amount of primer or paint will cover up a badly prepared surface. Plastic parts may contain static electricity from the molding process. This static attracts particles of dust and dirt. Eliminate them by treating with “destatisiz- ing” air using a special blow-off gun that imparts a neutral charge to the airflow. A chemical anti- static treatment is also available. Paint Preparation Todays finishes are extremely complex chemical formulations. They include both solvent and waterborne types. Some may require the addition of solvents to form the proper spraying viscosity. Others may simply require the addition of a second component at a prescribed ratio to obtain sprayable consistency. Many of them also have hardeners or other chemicals, added to them to insure correct color match, gloss, hardness, drying time or other characteristics necessary to produce a first class finish. Make sure you are familiar with the specific finish material data sheets accompanying each material. Do not mix materials from various manufacturers. Read and follow directions carefully. All finish materials must also be supplied with a Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS). This data provides information on proper handling and disposal of materials. Many states require that MSDS be kept on file by the user. The first step is knowing the type and color of paint the project requires. With this determined, follow the manufacturers instruction for preparing it exactly. If you have any doubts about how to proceed, dont guess! Contact your paint supplier for help. Improperly prepared paint will never produce a good finish! The chief characteristic that determines the sprayablility of paint and how much film may be applied is its viscosity or consistency. Following the paint manufacturers instructions will get you close, but for professional results, use a viscosity cup. It is a simple but very accurate way to measure the thickness of paint. With the cup, you can thin or reduce the paint to the precise consistency required by the manufacturer. Always prepare paint in a clean, dust-free environment. Paint has a remarkable ability to pick up dirt. Dirty paint will not only clog your spray gun, but it will also ruin your paint job. Get in the habit of always pouring paint into the cup or tank through a paint strainer. Paint is never as clean as it looks. 3 2. Air Atomizing Spray Guns 4 Introduction The spray gun is the key component in a finishing system. It is a precision engineered and manufactured instrument. Each type and size is specifically designed to perform a certain, defined range of tasks. As in most other areas of finishing work, having the right tool for the job goes a long way toward get- ting professional results. This chapter will help you know which is the proper gun by review- ing the Conventional Air and High Volume/Low Pressure spray gun designs commonly used in finish- ing - suction feed, gravity feed and pressure feed. It will also review the different types of guns and components within each design. A thorough understanding of the differences between systems will allow you to select the right gun, to use it properly to produce a high quality finish and to con- tribute toward a profitable finishing operation. SPRAY GUN TYPES 1. What is an air spray gun? An air spray gun is a tool which uses compressed air to atomize paint, or other sprayable material, and to apply it to a surface. Air and material enter the gun through separate passages and are mixed at the air cap in a controlled pattern. 2. What are the types of air spray guns? Air spray guns may be classified in various ways. One way is by the location of the material container: Figure 1 shows a gun with a cup attached below it. Figure 3 shows a gun with a cup attached above it. Figure 4 shows a material con- tainer some distance away from its pressure feed gun. The type of material feed system is also a way of classifying guns: Suction Feed. draws material to the gun by suction as in Figure 1. Gravity Feed. the material travels down, carried by its own weight and gravity as in Figure 3. Pressure Feed. the material is fed by positive pressure as in Figure 4. Guns may also be classified as either external or internal mix depending upon the type of air cap. 3. What is a suction feed gun? A spray gun design in which a stream of compressed air creates a vacuum at the air cap, providing a siphoning action. Atmospheric pressure on the material in the suction cup forces it up the suction tube, into the gun and out the fluid tip, where it is atomized by the air cap. The vent holes in the cup lid must be open. This type gun is usually limited to a one-quart, or smaller, capacity container and low to medium viscosity materials. Figure 1- Suction Feed Gun with attached cup Suction feed is easily identified by the fluid tip extending slightly be- yond the face of the air cap, see figure 2. Figure 2 - Suction Feed Air Cap Suction feed guns are suited to many color changes and to small amounts of material, such as in automotive panel/bumper repairs and completes, touchup, or lower production operations. 4. What is a gravity feed gun? This design uses gravity to flow the material from the cup, which is mounted above the gun, into the gun for spraying. No fluid pickup tube is used, since the fluid outlet is at the bottom of the cup. This cup has a vent hole at the top of the cup that must remain open. It is limited to 34 ounce capacities due to weight and balance. Gravity feed guns are ideal for small applications such as automotive panel/bumper repairs and completes, spot repair,or for finishing in a limited space. They require less air than a suction feed gun, and usually have less overspray. Figure 3- Gravity Feed Gun with attached cup 2. Air Atomizing Spray Guns (Contd) 5 5. What is a pressure feed gun? In this design, the fluid tip is flush with the face of the air cap (see Figure 5). The material is pressurized in a separate cup, tank or pump. The pressure forces the material through the fluid tip and to the air cap for atomization. Figure 4 - Typical Pressure Feed Gun with remote pot This system is normally used when large quantities of material are to be applied, when the material is too heavy to be siphoned from a container or when fast application is required. Production spraying in a manufacturing plant or fleet refinishing operation is a typical use of a pressure feed system Figure 5 - Pressure Feed Air Cap Type Viscosity Fluid Atomizing Type Feed (#2 Zahn) Oz/Minute Pressure Production Suction up to 24 10-12 40-50 Low Gravity up to 24 10-12 12-24 30-50 Low Pressure up to 29 50-60 High 6. What is an external mix air cap? This gun mixes and atomizes air and fluid outside the air cap. It can be used for applying all types of materials, and it is particularly desirable when spraying fast drying paints such as basecoat and lacquer. It is also used when a high quality finish is desired. Figure 6 - External Mix Gun 7. What is an internal mix cap? This cap mixes air and material inside the air cap, before expelling them. It is normally used where low air pressures and volumes are available, or where slow-drying materials are being sprayed. A typical example is spraying flat wall paint, or outside house paint, with a small compressor. Internal mix caps are rarely used for finishing when a fast-drying material is being sprayed, or when a high quality finish is required. Figure 7 - Internal Mix Air Cap 8. What is HVLP? HVLP, or High-Volume/Low Pressure, uses a high volume of air (typically between 15-26 CFM) delivered at low pressure (10 PSI or less at the air cap) to atomize paint into a soft, low-velocity pattern of particles. In many cases, less than 10 psi is needed in order to atomize. Proper setup utilizes no more fluid and air pressure than is needed to produce the required quality and a flow rate that will meet production requirements. As a result, far less material is lost in overspray, bounceback and blowback than with conventional air spray. This is why HVLP delivers a dramatically higher transfer efficiency (the amount of paint that adheres to the substrate compared to the amount of paint sprayed) than spray systems using a higher atomizing pressure. The HVLP spray gun resembles a standard spray gun in shape and operation. Models that use high inlet pressure (35-80 psi) and convert to low pressure internally within the spray gun are called HVLP conversion guns. Some HVLP models, particularly those using turbines to generate air, bleed air continuously to minimize back- pressure against the air flow of the turbine. The air cap design is similar to that of a standard spray gun, with a variety of air jets directing the atomizing air into the fluid stream, atomizing it as it leaves the tip. HVLP is growing in popularity and new environmental regulations are requiring it for many applications. HVLP can be used with a wide variety of materials, including two-component paints, urethanes, acrylics, epoxies, enamels, lacquers, stains, primers, etc. A DeVilbiss Pro Tip: When using a gravity feed system, downsize the tip one size from suction. If the suction system calls for a .070”, use a .055” or .063” 5 2. Air Atomizing Spray Guns (Contd) 6 PART IDENTIFICATION FUNCTION 9. What are the principal parts of a spray gun? Figure 8 - Spray Gun Anatomy 10. What happens when the trigger is pulled? The trigger operates in two stages. Initial trigger movement opens the air valve, allowing air to flow through the gun. Further movement of the trigger pulls the fluid needle from its seat at the fluid tip, allowing fluid material to flow. When the trigger is released, the fluid flow stops before the air flow. This lead/lag time in the trigger operation assures a full spray pattern when the fluid flow starts. It also assures a full pattern until the fluid flow stops, so there is no coarse atomization. 11. What is the function of the air cap? The air cap (see figure 10) directs compressed air into the fluid stream to atomize it and form the spray pattern. (see Figure 9) Round Tapered Blunt Figure 9 - Types of Spray Patterns There are various styles of caps to produce different sizes and shapes of patterns for many applications. 12. What are the advantages of the multiple jet cap? This cap design provides better atomization of more viscous materials. It allows higher atomization pressures to be used on more viscous materials with less danger of split spray pattern. It provides greater uniformity in pattern due to better equalization of air volume and pressure from the cap. It also provides better atomization for materials that can be sprayed with lower pressures. Figure 10 - Multiple Jet External Mix Air Cap 13. How should an air cap be selected? The following factors must be con- sidered: a) type, viscosity and volume of material to be sprayed b) size and nature of object, or surface to be sprayed (multiple, or larger, orifices increase ability to atomize more material for faster painting of large objects). Fewer, or smaller orifices usually require less air, produce smaller spray patterns and deliver less material. (These caps are designed for painting smaller objects and/or using slower speeds) c) material feed system used (pressure, suction or gravity) d) size of fluid tip to be used (most air caps work best with certain fluid tip/needle combinations) e) volume of air in cubic feet per minute (cfm) and pressure in pounds per square inch (psi) avail- able. See the DeVilbiss spray gun catalog for proper selection of air cap / fluid tip / needle combinations and typical uses. 14. What is the function of the fluid tip and needle? They restrict and direct the flow of material from the gun into the air stream. The fluid tip includes an internal seat for the tapered fluid needle, which reduces the flow of material as it closes. (see Figure 11). The amount of material that leaves the front of the gun depends upon the viscosity of the material, the material fluid pressure and the size of the fluid tip opening provided when the needle is unseated from the tip. Fluid tips are available in a variety of sizes to properly handle materials of various types, flow rates and viscosity.

What is the nozzle combination? In practice, the air cap, fluid tip, needle and baffle are selected as a unit, since they all work together to produce the quality of the spray pattern and finish. These four items, as a unit, are referred to as the nozzle combination. 16. What are standard fluid tip sizes and flow rates? The standard sizes, corresponding fluid tip opening dimensions and flow rates are: Rule of thumb Optimum fluid pressure is 8-20 psi. Pressures greater than this generally indicate the need for a larger fluid tip size. 17. How are fluid tip and needle sizes identified? DeVilbiss fluid tips and needles are identified by the letters stamped on the tip and the needle. The identification letters on these components should match. See the appropriate DeVilbiss spray gun catalog for the proper selection of fluid tip and needle combinations. 18. What fluid tip and needle combination sizes are most common? 1.0, 1.1, 1.4 and 1.8 are most generally used. The 1.4 and 1.6 combination is used for gravity feed, while 1.6 and 1.8 are used for suction feed. For pressure feed the most common tips are 1.1mm and 1.4mm. 19. How are nozzle combinations selected? Five basic considerations are in- volved in selecting the nozzle combination: type and viscosity of material being sprayed physical size of object being finished/fan pattern size desired speed/finish quality gun model being used available air volume (cfm) and pressure (psi) from compressor (1) The type and viscosity of the material being sprayed is the first factor to consider. Rule of thumb The lower the viscosity of the material, the smaller the I.D. of the fluid tip. Material Production Tip Viscosity Rate Size #2 Zahn up to 23 sec Low 1.1 mm 1.4 mm 1.8 mm 2.2 mm 23-28 sec Med 28-48 sec High over 48 sec High NOTE: Viscosity conversion charts are available to convert one viscosity cup reading to another from any material or equipment supplier. (2) The physical size of the object to be painted must also be considered. As a general rule, use the largest possible spray pattern consistent with the object size. Remember that different air caps deliver various pattern characteristics. This can reduce both spraying time and the number of gun passes. (3) The next consideration in evaluating nozzle combinations is the speed with which the finish will be applied and the desired level of quality. For speed and coverage, choose a nozzle combination which produces a pattern as wide as possible. When quality is the deciding factor, choose a nozzle combination which produces fine atomization and a smaller pattern size, thereby giving greater application control. (4) The model of the gun itself will limit the selection of nozzle combination. For a DeVilbiss suction feed gun, there are several nozzle types available which are suitable for finishing operations.
