I’m pressing the button but coating is not coming out

There could be a few culprits causing this. It may be the button is clogged due to some resin curing in the tip, effectively blocking coating flow. To remedy, remove the button then use a fine-point instrument and try to poke and dig out any dried material. You can soak the button in alcohol for a few minutes if residue is stubborn. To prevent this, it’s important to tilt the can and invert 45 degrees and continue to spray to clear the valve. The other cause may be a leak in the can has caused the propellant to leak out and there is no pressure. This will result in nothing coming out or the liquid just flowing and not aerosolizing. This cannot be fixed so please contact customer service and we will send out a replacement [email protected]

Why is applying 1 heavy coat not recommended?

Applying a single, heavy coat can lead to solvent entrapment and under curing of the film. Here, the surface hardens and entraps solvent within the bulk often leading to a tacky surface. To achieve thicker coats, apply multiple thin coats instead.

How can I measure dry film thickness?

There are different tools available to measure the dry film thickness. The easiest is the micrometer where the applicator can simply measure substrate thickness before and after coating with the difference being the dry film thickness. If the underlying substrate is electrically conductive, you can use a Positector which is a non-destructive test method.
