ORANGE PEEL


REASONS

  • The lacquer is insufficiently levelled (oversized droplets).
  • A large temperature difference between the lacquer and the surface.
  • Incorrect pressure when lacquering or incorrect distance from the surface.
  • The temperature and air velocity in the room are too high.
  • Drops of lacquer that are too dry fall onto the workpiece.

PREVENTION

  • Lower the viscosity, increase the pressure, and use a smaller nozzle.
  • Check and adjust the temperature difference between the lacquer and the surface.
  • Set the spray gun and follow the instructions.
  • Lower the temperature and air circulation rate.
  • Use a slow thinner, check the distance between the workpiece and the spray gun, increase the flow of the lacquer.

SOLUTION

  • Sand the surface down to the base/substrate.
  • Re-apply the lacquer according to the recommendations.
