Application
The 3M Performance Spray Gun, No. 26778, is capable of spraying a full range of coatings from base, sealer, and clear to primer coat. The spray gun reduces the time a painter and shop spends on non-productive tasks such as equipment cleaning, maintenance, and changeovers, says the company.
Features and benefits
- The spray gun sprays a full range of high-performance automotive coatings with a high transfer efficiency.
- The integrated system with the 3M PPS Series 2.0. Spray Cups and replaceable nozzles deliver fast changeovers, which add up to faster cycle times, the company says.
- The quick-change replaceable nozzle technology means clean-up can be as simple as a twist and a wipe. Every time a fresh nozzle is put on, it’s like getting a brand-new spray gun, says 3M.
- Made from an impact-resistant composite material, the spray gun is a light, comfortable weight but is still durable.
Selling points
- The 3M Performance Spray Gun enables painters to spend more time painting and less time on the non-productive tasks that take them out of the booth.
- Together, the 3M Performance Spray Gun and 3M PPS Series 2.0 work as a complete end-to-end system to deliver optimized value to spray performance and the paint application process.
- With six different nozzle sizes from 1.2 to 2.0, each atomizing head is optimized for consistent atomization and superior transfer efficiency, across a full range of high-performance automotive coatings.
