Flexibility For Indoor And Outdoor Painting Projects

The Flexio 570 is a hand-held sprayer delivering flexibility for indoor and outdoor painting projects. The power of the X-Boost turbine and the material spraying capability of the iSpray nozzle combine to make any project simpler.

Saving Time

The Flexio 570 Sprayer produces a slightly stippled, roller-like finish, perfect for interior walls. Edges, corners and broad interior surfaces can now be sprayed faster for better coverage and with some basic masking, you are saved from the tedious efforts of a brush, saving time for other projects.

Quieter And Lighter Than Traditional Airless Sprayers

The X-Boost turbine delivers 3X more power (at 65,000 RPM’s) to spray coatings with adjustable control, full coverage and low overspray. Not only is it more powerful, it is also 50% quieter and 20% lighter than traditional airless sprayers

Recommendations

Surface Preparation

All objects to be sprayed should be thoroughly cleaned before spraying material on them. Areas not to be sprayed may, in certain cases, need to be masked or covered.

Spray Area Preparation

The spray area must be clean and free of dust in order to avoid blowing dust onto your freshly sprayed surface.

How to Spray Properly

It is important to keep your arm moving whenever the gun is being triggered. If you pause or linger in one spot too long, too much material will be sprayed to the surface. Partially pulling the trigger will start the turbine, but no material will spray until the trigger is pulled fully. It is recommended that the trigger first be pulled partially in order to start the turbine before a spray pass is made. Position the spray gun perpendicular to and 6 to 8 inches from the spray surface, depending upon the spray pattern size desired. With reduced material flow and air power, you can get closer to the spraying surface. Spray parallel to the surface with smooth passes at a consistent speed as illustrated below. Doing this will help avoid irregularities in the finish (i. e. runs and sags). Always apply a thin coat of material on the first pass and allow to dry before applying a second, slightly heavier coat. When spraying larger surfaces, overlap each spray pass by at least 50% This will ensure full coverage. When spraying, always trigger the spray gun after spray pass has begun and release trigger before stopping the pass. Always keep the gun pointed squarely at the spray surface and overlap passes slightly to obtain the most consistent and professional finish possible.

Product Cleanup

When cleaning, use the appropriate cleaning solution (warm, soapy water for latex materials; mineral spirits for oil-based materials). Never clean air cap or air holes in the nozzle with sharp metal objects. Do not use solvents or lubricants containing silicone.

1. Unplug the power cord. Loosen the material container by 1/2 turn, but do not remove it. This will relieve any pressure left over in the system. Pull the trigger so that the material inside the spray nozzle drains back into the container.
2. Unscrew the container and remove. Empty any remaining material back into the material container.
3. Pour a small amount of the appropriate cleaning solution into the cup (Water=1/2 full. Mineral spirits=1/4 full).
4. Attach the cup to the nozzle and plug in the sprayer.
5. Spray the cleaning solution into a safe area. While spraying, gently shake the spray gun. This slight agitation will help break up smaller particles of spray material.
6. Unplug the power cord. Loosen the material container by 1/2 turn, but do not remove it. This will relieve any pressure left over in the system. Pull the trigger so that the material inside the spray nozzle drains back into the container.
