Default Texture spray painting


"EBG" wrote in message

Does anyone know what's involved in spraying a texture finish?

I think it requires a special tip(s)? Or does it take a special gun?

I have a small automotive touch up gun that I use often.....can I get

a tip
for it?

Tried searching the web for some "industrial paint supply" places but

no
luck.

THANKS for any help.



One method is to use spraycans of undercoating or an undercoating gun,
they're cheap, then prime and color over it.

Here is a blurb from a PPG product:
""""Note: Increasing or reducing the amount of thinner used will result
in reducing
or increasing the pattern (texture) of ROADGUARD.
Over Thinning = Pattern Diminishes
Under Thinning (Siphon Feed Gun) = Pattern Increases
Higher Air Pressure = Pattern Tightens
Lower Air Pressure = Poor Atomization
Gun Distance Too Far = Coarse Pattern
Gun Distance Too Close = Smooth Pattern"""""
