Frequently Asked Questions
Compatibility is by spray gun model, not the sprayer unit. Check if your gun is one of: 246220, 246221, 246434, 246230, 246231, 246435, 288420, 288421, 288425, 288429, 288430, 288431. If unsure, confirm in your gun’s parts manual.
Use 200-mesh for fine-finish work and cleaner, thinner coatings. Choose 60/100-mesh for thicker or highly-filled materials to reduce the chance of flow restriction and clogging.
Inspect and clean after each use. Replace if the screen is deformed, torn, or repeatedly clogs even after proper cleaning and material straining.
Yes—200-mesh captures smaller particles that can cause tip clogs. Ensure your material is properly strained and choose a mesh that balances finish quality with reliable flow.
Relieve pressure, remove the handle cap, and seat the new 200-mesh filter firmly. Reassemble, then test at low pressure to confirm proper flow before spraying.
