Why does paint sag or run when using a Harbor Freight Tools Paint Sprayer?
Paint sagging or running when using the Harbor Freight Tools Paint Sprayer can occur for several reasons: * The paint was applied too thickly. Apply thinner coats, allowing the paint to become tacky between coats. * The paint gun was too close to the work surface. Move the spray gun further back from the surface. * There was uneven or hesitant motion of the spray gun. Keep the spray gun moving during painting; hesitations can cause sagging or runs. * There was excessive overlapping of each spray stroke. Overlap each stroke to maintain even coverage, but be aware that this increases coat thickness.
