FAQ

Which 3M™ PPS™ systems are compatible with the 3M™ Accuspray™ HGP spray gun?

The gun is compatible with 3M™ PPS™ and 3M™ PPS™ Series 2.0 systems when used with the corresponding H/O pressurized cups and Accuspray™ nozzles.

What nozzle size should I use for different textures?

Use 1.4 mm for smooth or fine coatings, 1.8 mm for smooth or medium textures, and 2.0 mm for medium to heavy textures.

Can the H/O pressurized cup be used with other spray guns?

Yes. The 3M™ PPS™ H/O pressurized cup can be used with pressure spray guns from other manufacturers.

What air pressure is recommended when spraying?

Set the air pressure to 20 psi (1.4 bar) at the gun with the trigger pulled, and adjust the fan regulator between 45° and 90° open.

How can I adjust the texture of the coating?

The 3M™ Accuspray™ HGP pressure gun offers excellent texture control. For a rougher texture, tilt the gun 45° relative to the workpiece, spray from left to right and reduce the air pressure.

How should I clean the gun and nozzles?

Disconnect the air line, return liquid to the cup, remove the PPS™ cup, and use a suitable solvent (or water for waterborne coatings) to clean the Accuspray™ nozzle. Do not immerse the gun in solvent and do not point it upward while cleaning. Clean the needle with a cloth, check the nozzle condition and replace it if worn or damaged.

What should I do if I have a poor spray pattern?

Poor spray patterns can be caused by an obstructed air cap or fluid tip, or a bent needle. Replace the nozzle or needle as needed.

Why am I experiencing intermittent spraying?

This may be due to low liquid content in the PPS™ cup, an obstructed fluid tip or restricted air passage, loss of air pressure, or an empty PPS™ cup. Refill the cup, check and replace the nozzle if obstructed, and verify the air source.

Is the 3M™ Accuspray™ HGP spray gun suitable for all users?

No. The 3M™ Accuspray™ HGP spray gun kit is designed for professional industrial use only.

How should the product be stored when not in use?

Store the spray gun and components in a clean, dry and dust-free environment.
