FAQs
How do I apply the anti-spatter spray?
Shake the can well and spray evenly onto the surface from about 6-8 inches away. Ensure complete coverage of the welding area and surrounding surfaces.
Is the spray safe to use?
Yes, it is a water-based formula without harmful solvents, silicones, or oils, making it safer than solvent-based alternatives. It is also odorless and non-flammable.
Can I use this spray on all types of metal?
The spray is compatible with most common welding processes and metals. Always test on a small area first to ensure compatibility.
How do I clean the surface after welding?
After welding, allow the surface to cool. Wipe away the residue with a clean, damp cloth. For stubborn residue, use a mild solvent if necessary.
Does the spray affect post-weld treatments?
No, the SIP Anti-Spatter Spray is designed not to interfere with post-welding treatments.
How much area does a 400ml can cover?
Coverage depends on the application. Generally, the fine spray pattern ensures economical usage, allowing for multiple applications depending on the size of the work area and the amount applied per use.
What should I do if the nozzle clogs?
If the nozzle clogs, try cleaning it with a pin or needle. If it persists, replace the nozzle with a new one.
Troubleshooting
Spatter is still adhering to the surface.
Ensure that the spray was applied evenly and thoroughly. Reapply the spray, ensuring full coverage before welding. Check that the surface is clean before applying.
Spray is not coming out evenly.
Shake the can vigorously for at least 30 seconds before use. Check the nozzle for any blockages and clean if necessary. Replace the nozzle if required.
Residue is difficult to remove after welding.
Allow the area to cool before attempting to wipe away the residue. Use a clean, damp cloth to remove any remaining residue. For stubborn spots, a mild solvent may be necessary.
