trained and understand gun-to-target distance. A manual gun can be moved in to reach inside corners but not too close and keep micro-amps lower when tight to the part surface. Orange peel can be caused by excessive film thickness. While this is true to a certain extent, a contributing factor is electrostatic behavior. The film starts to increase resistance by "insulating" the part surface. This causes a drop off in film development with an increase in larger particle deposi- tion and a reduction in smaller particle size deposition. The increase in resistance can generate more rapid back-ioniza- tion. So be aware of the role that film thickness has on the back-ionization issue and avoid too much thickness.
