Common causes of bad spray patterns

Common causes of bad spray patterns

If you’re experiencing a poor spray pattern while using an airless paint sprayer, it could lead to various issues such as tails, striping, uneven colour distribution and other streaks or disturbances. Identifying the root cause of these problems will help you determine the best solution for achieving an optimal spray pattern. Here’s a closer look at five common causes and steps contractors can take to resolve them. 

Cause 1 – Partial clogging of the spray tip

Over time, the coating you’re spraying may dry and build up around the orifice of the spray tip, leading to uneven material flow. In such cases, it’s advisable to clean the tip using the appropriate water or solvent recommended by the paint manufacturer. If cleaning doesn’t work, consider purchasing a replacement spray tip. 

Cause 2 – Incorrect Pressure Setttings

Airless sprayers require consistent pressure to atomise the coating effectively. Inconsistent spray patterns are often caused by one of two issues: either the pump is not providing the right pressure or the pressure was not set correctly by the operator.

If the sprayer fails to maintain consistent pressure, check the pump packing. These packings create a tight seal around the piston rod, ensuring even pressure during operation. Additionally, inspect the condition of the ball and seat components located at the top and/or bottom of the airless piston stroke, as they help maintain pressure balance. If you notice the sprayer leaning to one side and returning rapidly, this may indicate a worn ball and seat.

Another common issue stems from user error. The operator must set the sprayer’s pressure correctly to achieve an optimal spray pattern. Insufficient pressure can lead to tails, while excessive pressure results in overspray, wasted material, increased cleanup time and higher operational costs. Adjust the pressure as needed to minimise these issues. If the sprayer is already operating at maximum pressure, consider using a hose with a larger diameter.

Cause 3 – Using an oversized tip

Every airless paint sprayer has a maximum recommended tip size. Utilising a tip that exceeds this size can result in low-pressure issues. Make sure the tip is suitable for the type of material you are spraying to avoid these problems.  

By addressing these common causes, you can improve the performance of your airless paint sprayer and achieve a better finish in your projects. 

Cause 4 – The tip is worn out ​


After prolonged use, spray tips will eventually wear out, resulting in an uneven spray pattern characterised by excessive overspray and increased material waste. If a tip is worn out and has exceeded its usable life, it’s time to replace it with a new, high-quality spray tip.
 

Wagner offers a range of reversible, fine-finish and HEA spray tips, providing unique options for various applications and environments. 

  • Our TradeTip 3 tips has a long-lasting orifice that provides more usable life while achieving up to a 22% wider fan pattern. 
  • The Tradetip 3 Fine Finish tips  achieves a particle size up to 27% smaller than a standard tip and is pressure-rated at 5,000 PSI. 
  • Our HEA Pro tips are optimised to spray all architectural paints and coatings at 1000 PSI at production speed, decreasing overspray by up to 55% to allow you to keep on spraying. 

Cause 5 – The material is too viscous

In certain cases, the material being too viscous (thick) can also cause issues with the quality of the spray pattern. If this is the case, it’s time to add the proper thinner to the fluid per the manufacturer’s recommendations.

How to paint a wooden fence

How to paint a wooden fence

When deciding whether to paint or spray your fence, many do-it-yourselfers find themselves pondering this question: Should I use a brush, roller, or spray? Our recommendation is clear: if your wooden fence needs a fresh coat, spraying offers significant advantages.

Spraying is not only faster, but it also provides a more thorough coating. The paint penetrates deep into the cracks and grooves of the wood, ensuring better coverage. Additionally, the application is much more uniform, eliminating the brush marks that can occur with traditional painting methods.

This even application reduces the exposed surface area that is vulnerable to the elements, allowing the coating to protect your fence for a longer period.

Here's what you need to get started

Item 1. Pick a sprayer – here’s what we recommend

Item 2. Wire brush or broom

Item 3. Drop cloths (you can find a full list here)

Item 4. An exterior paint

Now you've got all the equipment needed

Step 1 - Clean the fence

Before painting, it’s important to remove any peeling or flaking paint. A broom is useful for this task, as it helps you avoid bending down. For tougher areas, a wire brush can be effective. Be sure to clean all the dirt off the fence thoroughly to ensure that the new paint adheres properly to the surface.

Step 2 - Cover the working area

To protect the areas beneath the fence, cover them thoroughly with materials such as drop cloths or old cardboard. Ensure that the covering is secure and lays flat on the ground, preventing it from fluttering due to the spray jet. If necessary, you can use masking tape to hold the covering material in place.

Step 3 - Prepare the paint and the sprayer

Start by thoroughly stirring the paint and, if necessary, dilute it according to the manufacturer’s instructions. Next, pour the paint into the container of the paint sprayer. To do this, set the switch to the “prime” position and turn on the unit. Once you see the paint flowing through the return hose, the sprayer is ready to use. Simply switch the setting to “SPRAY.”

Before you begin spraying your project, it’s a good idea to perform a test spray to check if any adjustments are needed. You can use an old cardboard box or spray on the back of a fence for this test. For detailed instructions on adjusting the settings of your airless sprayer, refer to the enclosed operating instructions or our product videos.

If your using the fence and deck sprayer – simply just pour the paint into the pot and adjust your paint flow settings. Test your settings out before applying paint to the fence.

Step 4 - Spraying time

Now it’s time for the spraying! Spray at a steady pace and at a distance of about 25-30 cm from the fence for airless and 5-15cm for the fence and decking sprayer. Overlap the paint strips slightly so that the coating becomes uniform and even.

The spraying technique enables the paint to be applied in any gaps in the fence. It is also helpful to work in a cross coat technique on uneven surfaces – i.e. first paint from left to right and then from top to bottom or vice versa. The wide paint jet can be adapted to your working direction – simply turn the nozzle holder on the front of the gun.

Use a piece of cardboard at the top of the fence to prevent any overspray from coating unwanted surfaces.

Refresh the outdoor chairs

Crafty ways to upcycle a chair

Spring is just around the corner, and it’s the perfect time to enjoy the outdoors in our garden or on the balcony. You might want to bring out your terrace furniture, but if the paint is peeling or the wood looks weathered, it can dampen the holiday mood.

Here, we’ll share a simple and quick way to transform an old chair into something special. The possibilities are endless.

Tools & Equipment Required for this project

  • Paint sprayer (if you don’t have one visit our sprayer selector tool)
  • Masking tape/Mask it
  • Sand paper
  • Cloth
  • Priming paint
  • Chalk paint

Upcycling beach chairs with a weathered appearance

Imagine relaxing in the fresh air, surrounded by a romantic ambiance that evokes memories of the beach. You can easily bring this dreamy atmosphere to a plain wooden chair by giving it a weathered beach basket appearance. This vintage, weathered look is currently in style and can beautifully complement a modern setting. Each crack and scratch tells a unique story, and by doing it yourself, you can achieve this aesthetic without the expense of authentic antiques.

Here’s how to achieve this style:

If there’s still some paint on the chair, thoroughly sand it and wipe off the dust with a cloth. Prime the chair with primer paint with a tint of grey and allow it to dry completely. Then, create the weathered look using a chalk paint color. Carefully apply the paint to the wood with a cloth, creating an irregular pattern. Let it dry, and you’ll have your very own self-made holiday chair to enjoy.

Painting the colours of the chair in a colourful stripe looks completely different.

It looks fresh and the graphic element is a real eye-catcher. The vertical slats on the chair are perfect for the striped look. Choose your favourite colours, for example, white and grey are a perfect aesthetic.

Prime the chair in white paint and let it dry throughly. Then, simply tape or cover all places that should not be painted with the other colour. Spray the rest of the slats with the second colour. If you want, you can paint the armrests and the chair legs yet another colour. When everything is thoroughly dried, remove the masking tape. Using a colourful stripe creates a lively contrast and an exceptional design. It’s an easy way to make a simple chair into a real eye-catcher.

TempSpray – Temperatured Controlled Spraying

TempSpray Temperature controlled spraying

TempSpray Temperature controlled airless spraying: heat instead of dilute

Temperature controlled airless spraying is a paint application method that offers several advantages. WAGNER’s TempSpray technology uses a heated hose to improve surface finish. In this guide, we’ll explain how the technology works and the benefits it provides. So what is it? 

What is temperature controlled airless spraying?

Temperature-controlled airless spraying is a process in which the ideal viscosity for spraying is achieved by heating the material to the optimum temperature throughout the year. A heated hose is used to heat the material to the required temperature. By optimising temperature, the viscosity is reduced, and this, in turn, reduces the required spraying pressure. As a result, paint overspray is reduced, the longevity of your sprayer is increased, and the surface finish is improved.

TempSpray – how does the work?

The heated hose is an innovative accessory that connects to the paint sprayer and replaces the regular hose that usually runs between the pump and paint spray gun. This cutting-edge technology uses an electric heating element to heat the material inside the hose to the desired temperature along the entire length of the hose. You have the flexibility to set the temperature between 20°C and 60°C, depending on your needs. This feature allows for a lower viscosity, which, in turn, leads to an exceptional material application. The softer spray jet and optimised atomisation make for an improved overall experience.

Spraying advantages with TempSpray

Using a heated hose to apply coating material ensures that it remains at a constant temperature, regardless of the ambient temperature. This helps to reduce its viscosity, even when dealing with highly viscous materials. As a result, the coating material can be applied at a lower pressure during temperature-controlled spraying, which can make a significant difference in the final outcome. The benefits of using a heated hose system for applying paint can be clearly seen in the final product.

By heating the material you achieve

  • Perfect spray pattern without tailing
  • Optimum surface quality thanks to softer spray jet and optimised atomisation
  • Considerably better edge coverage
  • Increased application efficiency
  • Reduced overspray with virtually no spray mist
  • Decreased masking requirement and subsequent cleaning
  • Shorter flash-off and drying time.

If you’re looking for a reliable and efficient way to connect your paint sprayers, WAGNER’s TempSpray heated hose system might just be what you need! Depending on your requirements, you can choose between a small, compact and handy model or go for something more practical with a long hose and reel. 

 

One of the most useful features of this product is the ability to adjust the desired temperature of the material from 20 to 60 degrees Celsius. When you switch it on, it automatically starts with an initial temperature of 40 degrees Celsius, but you can fully adjust the temperature setting of the product at any time to fit your specific needs. 

For larger heated hose systems, you’ll be pleased to know that there’s also an integrated hose reel that’s particularly practical for the construction site. With this, you’ll have a large working radius and a compact and safe way to store the hose, reducing any risk of damaging it. Overall, WAGNER’s TempSpray heated hose system is a great investment if you’re looking for a reliable and efficient way to connect your paint sprayers.

 TempSpray – what applications are suitable?

The WAGNER TempSpray is a top-of-the-line temperature-controlled spraying system that is specifically designed for professional use. The system features heated hoses that are capable of handling a wide range of coating materials, including paint, varnish, and many others. Among the different TempSpray models, the H 326 stands out with its 30-meter long hose that offers the largest working radius. Moreover, this model is ideal for highly viscous materials such as adhesives and sealants.

One of the most remarkable features of the WAGNER TempSpray system is its ability to deliver a flawless finish even at low outside temperatures. This means that you can use it to apply exterior paint and interior emulsion paints with ease and in large construction sites, even if the coating material has cooled down during storage. In situations where you’re dealing with large and draughty surfaces, like multi-storey car parks, bridges, and subways, the material tends to cool down quickly during the application. However, with TempSpray, this is no longer a problem. The hose heats the material to the desired temperature, ensuring that you can work all year round without any restrictions on the quality of the surface you create. With TempSpray, you’re in control, and you can easily defeat factors such as weather and outside temperature.

With the WAGNER TempSpray H 126, H 226 and H 326 offers temperature controlled spraying for every coating application. The various materials that can be applied are:

  • Enamels
  • Wood protection
  • Primers
  • Stains
  • Oils
  • Interior paints
  • Acrylic paints
  • Exterior paints
  • Fire protection
  • Water-proofing of buildings
  • Adhesives
  • Sealants

Please note

Which ever materials are being used please read manufacturers SDS sheets instructions regarding flammable material.

TempSpray Models Available

Works with

The TempSpray heated hose is available as an accessory for many Airless paint sprayers and also some AirCoat sprayers. This means that you can use the TempSpray with  models from the SuperFinish, the ProSpray through to the HeavyCoat to enjoy the benefits of temperature controlled spraying.

Airless Tips & Tricks: Tailing and Adjustment

When preparing to spray – test onto cardboard to ensure your spray is even.

Before spraying, we recommend carrying out a spray test on a piece of cardboard.

 

If the spray pattern is unsatisfactory, for example due to tailing on the edges, you can adjust the following settings:

First, check the pressure setting. An increase in the spray pressure leads to the nozzle being supplied with more material and therefore the spray pattern is more even. The material can also be diluted, since the viscosity is also crucial for the material’s spraying properties.

The right nozzle size is a further factor that influences the spray pattern. The choice of nozzle depends on the material. The wear of the nozzle also needs to be considered. If necessary, the nozzle should be replaced.

Tailing pattern
Even- correct pattern

 


What is tailing?

Tailing usually occurs when your using airless sprayers. This happens when the paint is too thick and your trying to push that paint through the incorrect tip. By checking the Technical Data Sheet from the paint manufacturer, this will tell you what tip you should be using. When the spray pattern is tailing, below we’ve provided some quick solutions. When you’ve corrected the spray pattern and your achieving a smooth pattern, a 50% overlap is recommended.

  • Pressure is too low: Increase the pressure your spraying
  • Your spray tip is clogged – clean and clear the spray tip
  • Check the inlet filter. Sometimes the inlet filter can be clogged
  • Check your spray gun filter. Is it clogged? This may need cleaning. Always keep extra spray filters in your tool box.
  • If you’ve been spraying, the spray tip may be worn. Keep some extra tips in your tool box for these occassions.
  • If the material is too thick – do you have the right size tip? A possible solution to this is thin the material using the appropriate thinning solutions.

Why Use a Tip Extension?

 

WHY USE A TIP EXTENSION?

Use tip extension for extra reach! Using the extensions make working with Airless paint sprayers more efficient, by increasing the working radius. The nozzle extensions are also useful for accessing hard-to-reach areas such as ceilings, door and window frames.

 

 

Whether it be for a DIY or Professional Wagner Sprayer, a tip extension is a handy addition to your sprayer. Depending on the project, there are matching extensions between 30 and 60 cm. The use of a nozzle extension often means that the use of ladders or scaffolding can be reduced to a minimum. The Airless nozzle extensions are compatible with all WAGNER Airless guns and are available with a G or F thread.

The reduction of fatigue on the body allows you to spray on a roof without the need to bend to even spraying ceilings, cornices or the hard to reach areas and enables you the painter to reduce the amount of time and money in your spraying application with less setup time.

Below we’ve prepared a list of tip extensions products from both DIY to Professional product ranges to help guide you.
