1
00:00:11.700 --> 00:00:13.349
Orange peel.
2
00:00:13.350 --> 00:00:14.399
What is it?
3
00:00:14.400 --> 00:00:15.539
What are some of the causes?
4
00:00:17.220 --> 00:00:19.169
We call it orange peel because it
5
00:00:19.170 --> 00:00:21.989
looks like an orange
6
00:00:21.990 --> 00:00:23.670
peel. The peel of the orange.
7
00:00:24.750 --> 00:00:26.369
It's kind of the same Look behind
8
00:00:26.370 --> 00:00:27.370
it.
9
00:00:27.660 --> 00:00:28.680
It's not desirable.
10
00:00:30.390 --> 00:00:32.429
Some of the possible causes would be
11
00:00:32.430 --> 00:00:33.689
material not thinned out
12
00:00:33.690 --> 00:00:35.729
sufficiently using
13
00:00:35.730 --> 00:00:37.679
a pour thinner to reduce
14
00:00:37.680 --> 00:00:38.680
with.
15
00:00:39.540 --> 00:00:41.579
Maybe your material was not mixed
16
00:00:41.580 --> 00:00:44.099
up like it needs to be mixed up
17
00:00:44.100 --> 00:00:45.509
in insufficient air pressure.
18
00:00:48.150 --> 00:00:49.320
The stroke of your gun.
19
00:00:50.730 --> 00:00:52.769
You're not the right
20
00:00:52.770 --> 00:00:53.729
distance.
21
00:00:53.730 --> 00:00:56.099
You're going too fast, too slow.
22
00:00:56.100 --> 00:00:57.299
That will cause that as well,
23
00:00:59.400 --> 00:01:00.630
using the wrong air gap.
24
00:01:02.790 --> 00:01:03.790
Overspray.
25
00:01:06.070 --> 00:01:07.449
Possibly even the weather.
26
00:01:09.070 --> 00:01:11.259
It's affecting how it's drying.
27
00:01:11.260 --> 00:01:12.309
So let's talk about some of the
28
00:01:12.310 --> 00:01:14.229
solutions. How do we
29
00:01:14.230 --> 00:01:16.239
get rid of that undesirable look
30
00:01:16.240 --> 00:01:17.799
of orange peel?
31
00:01:17.800 --> 00:01:19.809
We need that flow,
32
00:01:19.810 --> 00:01:20.919
that smooth
33
00:01:22.000 --> 00:01:23.829
feel to
34
00:01:23.830 --> 00:01:25.239
our coating.
35
00:01:25.240 --> 00:01:27.579
Let's start by
36
00:01:27.580 --> 00:01:29.200
understanding the product.
37
00:01:30.580 --> 00:01:31.819
If you take a look at your product
38
00:01:31.820 --> 00:01:33.489
data page, it'll tell you the
39
00:01:33.490 --> 00:01:34.779
parameters we need to work with.
40
00:01:34.780 --> 00:01:36.729
Then pay
41
00:01:36.730 --> 00:01:38.049
attention to that.
42
00:01:38.050 --> 00:01:39.050
They're there for a reason.
43
00:01:41.530 --> 00:01:42.459
Ensure the product.
44
00:01:42.460 --> 00:01:44.379
Really mix it up thoroughly.
45
00:01:46.240 --> 00:01:48.609
Increase fluid pressure,
46
00:01:48.610 --> 00:01:50.710
air pressure, balance the gun
47
00:01:51.820 --> 00:01:53.679
you may need, may need to adjust
48
00:01:53.680 --> 00:01:55.929
both, maybe
49
00:01:55.930 --> 00:01:57.219
adjust the air pressure just
50
00:01:57.220 --> 00:01:59.419
slightly by 5 pounds each.
51
00:01:59.420 --> 00:02:00.879
Each increment.
52
00:02:00.880 --> 00:02:01.880
Take a test spray.
53
00:02:03.130 --> 00:02:05.019
Still see it increases another
54
00:02:05.020 --> 00:02:06.069
five BSI.
55
00:02:07.240 --> 00:02:09.249
Be deliberate when you're spraying.
56
00:02:10.870 --> 00:02:12.779
Keep that gun 6
57
00:02:12.780 --> 00:02:14.150
to 10 inches
58
00:02:15.310 --> 00:02:16.449
above your work surface.
59
00:02:18.190 --> 00:02:19.190
Too close
60
00:02:20.080 --> 00:02:22.599
or draw too much product too quick.
61
00:02:22.600 --> 00:02:23.709
Too slow.
62
00:02:23.710 --> 00:02:25.389
Withdraw too much product too quick.
63
00:02:26.530 --> 00:02:28.059
Eliminate drafts as much as
64
00:02:28.060 --> 00:02:29.469
possible.
65
00:02:29.470 --> 00:02:31.299
You want that time for the coating
66
00:02:31.300 --> 00:02:33.279
to flow to do
67
00:02:33.280 --> 00:02:34.899
its thing right.
68
00:02:34.900 --> 00:02:36.219
If you got a good draft flowing
69
00:02:36.220 --> 00:02:38.199
across your parts, you're speeding
70
00:02:38.200 --> 00:02:40.359
up that flow for that drive,
71
00:02:40.360 --> 00:02:41.840
that dry cure time.
72
00:02:42.910 --> 00:02:44.289
You're not allowing the time,
73
00:02:44.290 --> 00:02:46.179
appropriate time for that product
74
00:02:46.180 --> 00:02:47.180
to flow out.
75
00:02:47.920 --> 00:02:48.920
Weather
76
00:02:49.780 --> 00:02:50.830
watcher Humidity.
77
00:02:52.350 --> 00:02:54.539
Do we need to add
78
00:02:54.540 --> 00:02:56.469
a solvent to
79
00:02:56.470 --> 00:02:57.829
slow down?
80
00:02:57.830 --> 00:02:59.289
Give us a little bit, a little bit
81
00:02:59.290 --> 00:03:01.419
more dry time
82
00:03:01.420 --> 00:03:03.520
or flow flow time we should for
83
00:03:05.020 --> 00:03:06.849
of things to look at.
84
00:03:06.850 --> 00:03:08.109
So these are some of the possible
85
00:03:08.110 --> 00:03:09.310
causes for orange peel
86
00:03:10.420 --> 00:03:12.459
and a few solutions for you to take
87
00:03:12.460 --> 00:03:13.460
into consideration.
