Reverse-A-Clean (RAC) IV SwitchTips
Choosing a quality tip will determine the quality of your finish and help save a significant amount of time and money. Each Graco tip is 100% tested for flow rate to meet the tough standards of painting contractors.
Choosing the right spray tip is essential for ensuring a quality finish - no matter the coating material being sprayed. However, spray tips will wear with normal use. It’s important to replace a tip when it gets worn to ensure a precise spray pattern, maximum productivity and quality finish. When a tip wears, the orifice size increases and fan width decreases, causing more paint to hit a smaller area. Extend tip life by spraying at the lowest pressure that breaks up the coating into a complete spray pattern (atomize). Do not increase the pump pressure; it only wastes paint and causes unnecessary pump component wear.
Tip life varies by coating, see replacement time:
Latex - Replace after 15-40 gallons
Oils & Stains - Replace after 35-60 gallons
