Abstract
An alignment tool for engaging with an air cap of an air assisted airless spray gun includes a tool body configured to fit over the air cap and an indicator disposed on the tool body. The indicator is configured to indicate an angular position of the air cap relative to a vertical gun axis of the air assisted airless spray gun. The alignment tool includes a first surface configured to engage with a first air horn of the air cap and a second surface configured to engage with a second air horn of the air cap to exert a rotational force on the air cap and change the angular position of the air cap relative to the vertical gun axis.
