    • Technician A

    • Technician B

    • Both Technician A and B

    • Neither Technician A or B

    Correct Answer
    A. Technician B
    Explanation
    Technician B is correct. A full wet coat of paint is produced by moving the spray gun slower than normal.

By moving the spray gun slower, more paint is applied to the surface, resulting in a smoother and more even finish.
