Special Instructions

For clean-up, use warm soapy water for latex materials and mineral spirits for oil-based materials. Generally, the clean-up procedure is like this (Also clean up is covered in detail in pgs 12-13 of owner's manual):

• Unscrew the container, pour out excess material, then reinstall with a bit of cleaning solution and use sprayer so the cleaning solution cycles through the sprayer;

• Then disassemble the nozzle into its components (5-ish) and drop into cleaning solution to soak, then clean all parts with cleaning brush, let dry and reassemble.
