spray it runs can be an issue with an airless sprayer with an HVLP sprayer it's usually just the opposite you got a higher transfer rate you're putting out less product but it's got a better transfer rate and of it's very rare that I get runs with an hlp sprayer the the biggest thing I'll run into is not enough product coming out and I'm and I have to go too slow and sometimes a project I'm sitting there spraying it and it's just taken me you know too long I definitely want to make sure that I have you know my material set where I got enough product coming out enough product transferring on there that as I'm spraying and overlapping it's all jellying together so if it's if you don't have enough product going on as you're moving and you're overlapping you can get what we like these dry edges and dry Feathering edges and you can get some roughness to you know your coating if you're not putting on enough coating so kind it's just kind of like a fine line You'll eventually you'll dial it into when you're testing it out you're seeing the product coming out you're going to go yeah that's exactly what I'm looking for you start applying it you know if you just feel like you're going too slow open it up send more material if you're feel like you're just getting too much and you got some runs just you know back Material off and once if you're using 2K B if you get a run or you get some rough edges don't ever Panic don't worry cuz it dries fast and you can sand it fast it's one of the benefits to 2K poly is 45 minutes later you can sand it and re-shoot it again
