FAQs
What is the best spray pattern for large surfaces?
For large surfaces like walls or fences, the horizontal or vertical spray patterns are generally most effective for quick, even coverage.
Do I need to thin my paint before using the SG900?
It often depends on the paint type and its original viscosity. Check the paint manufacturer's recommendations for spray application. Many paints benefit from thinning for optimal atomization.
How often should I clean the spray gun?
The spray gun should be thoroughly cleaned immediately after each use to prevent paint from drying and clogging the internal components.
Can I spray exterior paint with this gun?
Yes, the SG900 is designed to handle a variety of coatings, including many exterior paints, provided they are thinned appropriately if necessary.
What is the 'nummular' spray pattern used for?
The nummular (circular) pattern is typically best for smaller, more detailed areas or for creating a circular finish, such as on table legs or decorative elements.
How do I adjust the paint flow?
The flow adjustment nozzle allows you to control the volume of paint dispensed. Turn it clockwise for less flow and counter-clockwise for more flow.
Troubleshooting
Sprayer not atomizing paint properly
Check if the paint viscosity is too high; thin as recommended. Ensure the nozzle is clean and clear of clogs. Verify the air cap is correctly aligned.
Uneven spray pattern
Adjust the spray pattern selector. Ensure consistent distance from the surface. Clean the nozzle and air cap for obstructions.
Paint leaking from the unit
Verify that all connections, including the paint container and nozzle assembly, are securely tightened. Inspect seals for damage.
Unit not powering on
Confirm the power cord is securely plugged into a working outlet. Check the power switch on the unit.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: Before first use, ensure all parts are clean. Read the product manual for specific assembly instructions. Connect the power cord and ensure the paint container is securely attached.
Compatibility: The SG900 is compatible with various materials including latex paints, oil-based paints, lacquers, varnishes, stains, and primers. For optimal results, check the viscosity of your chosen coating; some thicker materials may require thinning according to the paint manufacturer's recommendations.
Care: After each use, thoroughly clean the sprayer. Disassemble relevant parts (refer to manual) and flush with the appropriate solvent (water for latex-based, mineral spirits for oil-based). Ensure all components are dry before reassembly and storage. Store in a clean, dry place.
