ClearJet® Application Techniques

ClearJet: Aerosol Cans ClearJet® A2000 Series and Series FA Fine Art Using an aerosol is easy to learn. Here are some tips for achieving an even, nice finish:

1. Before you use a can, always shake it well. This is more critical with semi-gloss and low-gloss versions.

2. Always begin the spray off the surface to be coated.

3. Keep the can about 3 - 6 inches from the surface. Drier and warmer temperatures will require closer application.

4. Never turn your wrist! Turning your wrist will change the amount of fluid volume delivered to the surface. To ensure an even coating, always keep your wrist the same distance from the surface, and move your arm.

5. Always continue the spray past the edge of the print you are coating.

6. To ensure a uniform coating, while off the print move the spray can about halfway down the coated area from the last pass and continue applying the clear in the reverse direction. This yields a 50% overlap (a 2-pass application).

7. Throughout the coating process, make this a continuous motion. Try not to stop, particularly when it's hot or dry.
