5. Power and Material Controls Spray performance will depend upon a number of factors material thickness air power spray pattern selected and material flow Testing different variations of the control settings will help you achieve the desired results See descriptions and suggested Power and Material Settings Guide below to help with your project X Boost Power Dial The X Boost power dial adjusts the level of air pressure produced by the turbine The X Boost power dial is factory set at maximum out of the box e A high air power level will result in faster coverage and a smoother finish with thicker materials e Lowering the air power will result in larger drops of material being sprayed from the gun and will create a slightly rougher finish Tip The thicker the material you are spraying the higher the turbine power you will need Tip For fine finish work with thinner materials you may want to decrease the air power Spraying a thinner material at high air power will result in more overspray Overspray is sprayed material that does not stick to the spray surface and bounces back 2 Speed Air Power Control The FLEXiO model 570 is equipped with a 2 speed air power control high low Variable Air Power Control The FLEXiO model 590 is equipped with a variable air power control 1 9 Power and Material Settings Guide iSpray Nozzle Material Flow Control The material flow control determines the
