In the past, we’ve written blogs about tips on keeping your refinishing spray gun in working order and the overall importance of keeping your equipment clean in order to extend its lifetime. As a refinisher, you’re well aware of how important this piece of equipment is and how all jobs, both kitchen and bathroom refinishing, rely on having a properly cared for and well-maintained spray gun and system. Taking the time to clean your spray gun, maintenance, and repair small fixes yourself, or in some cases, sending it away to be repaired, undoubtedly gives you a better return on your investment. So let’s dive into refinishing gun maintenance on your Titan Capspray System specifically, a trusted option sold and used by NAPCO experts.

Maintain a Proper Cleaning Schedule and Update Regularly

As for the Titan Capspray system specifically, it is recommended to change the two outer filters every week to every month, depending on usage, as well as the main filter to be changed monthly to bi-monthly. Doing so will cost you very little upfront, and ultimately extend the life of the systems motor by years if properly cared for.
