FAQs
What is the primary benefit of the polished body?
The polished body minimizes paint adhesion, making the cleanup process faster and more thorough compared to traditional cast bodies.
Can I use this gun for clear coats?
Yes, the AZ3 HTE2 is well-suited for high-quality clear coats due to its precise atomization capabilities.
What does the included mini water filter do?
The filter traps water droplets and oil contaminants from your air supply, preventing imperfections in your paint finish.
Is the Akulon cup chemical resistant?
Yes, Akulon is a high-grade material designed to be resistant to common automotive paints and solvents.
How often should I clean the spray gun?

Troubleshooting
Splattering or inconsistent spray pattern
Check the fluid nozzle for dried paint blockage and ensure the air cap is tightened properly.
Moisture appearing in the paint finish
Check the mini water filter for saturation and ensure your main air compressor tank has been drained of moisture.
Excessive paint waste
Adjust the air pressure to match the recommended HTE2 specifications and check the fluid control knob for optimal flow settings.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up, securely attach the provided Akulon cup to the gravity feed port and connect your air source via the mini water filter to ensure moisture-free operation. Compatibility is centered on standard shop compressed air lines. For care, always flush the internal passages with an appropriate solvent immediately after use. Because the body is polished, avoid using abrasive cleaning pads that could mar the surface; instead, use a soft cloth or a specialized spray gun cleaning kit to maintain the integrity of the finish and the precision of the nozzle.
