Graco says that its fiber-reinforced plastic (FRP) gel coat systems are now available for molded fiber-reinforced plastics used in automotive applications.
The Graco RS gel coat gun is reportedly up to 44% lighter than competing gun technologies and uses Air Assist Containment (AAC) technology which wraps spray in a containing shield of air, preventing atomized droplets from escaping the spray pattern. The resulting decrease in overspray can help reduce material waste and create a healthier environment for operators.
