Tips and Tricks
- After spraying, turn the cans upside down and spray the riser until only gas comes out to prevent clogging of the valve.
How it is done:
- Prepare materials and clean boxes as necessary. They should be clean, dry, and free of dust.
- Cover the work area well and protect the environment from paint mist. It is best to spray outside or provide adequate ventilation.
- Carefully remove the actuators from the cans and remove the red safety valve. Replace the actuators and caps and shake the cans for 2-3 minutes. Spray the cans on newspaper first to make sure there are no solids in the actuator.
- Spray about two thirds of the first box with the first color. Spray from a distance of 20 to 30 cm and from different sides to ensure that every area of the box is evenly covered with paint. Allow the paint to dry thoroughly before moving on to the second color.
- To apply the second color to all the front areas where the spray paint might hit the opposite side of the box, use a piece of paper and hold it in the center of the box. In the areas of color transition (bottom, sides), the closer to the center you spray, the greater the distance between the spray paint and the box. In this way, fewer and fewer paint particles will reach the center of the box, creating a smooth transition. Allow the second coat to dry thoroughly.
