Applies to: Smith Performance S103EX Stainless Steel Compression Sprayer (Model 190468), acetone compatible
What causes this: Debris or chemical residue may be lodged in the shut-off, or the internal seals may be worn. Acetone can degrade standard seals over time.
How to fix it:
- Depressurize the tank first.
- Unscrew and disassemble the shut-off valve.
- Rinse all parts with clean water and inspect for debris or damage.
- Replace worn seals using Smith Performance Shut-Off Repair Kit (acetone-compatible Viton seals, Kit #11).
- Reassemble and test with water.
