Further Information

How to Use

The cup-gun is designed to spray pre-activated resins and gel coats which means that hardeners or catalysts should be mixed thoroughly into the resin before spray commences. To make cleaning simple the gelcoat gun uses disposable cups to hold the gel coat or resin which is also the ideal place to add and mix the hardener or catalyst. The disposable cup is then loaded into the sturdy outer cup which is the pressed firmly onto the lid/body of the gun and held in place with a spring mechanism.

The grip of the gun has a 1/4" inch BSP male thread and so is easily connected to an air-line using a 1/4" BSP female hose-tail barb (sold separately). It is recommended to use PTFE tape to ensure a reliable seal.

To begin spraying, hold the gun at a distance of approximately 50cm (around 2') from the mould surface and pull the trigger whilst passing over the mould surface in a smooth motion.

When you're done, remove the spring to release the cup, dispose of the paper cup and any excess gelcoat or resin before separating the parts of the gun and rinsing them in acetone.

Air pressure and throughput

The CG110 Gelcoat Spraying Cup Gun for should be used with an air feed pressure of between 60 and 100 psi. The gun will use around 5.8cfm at a typical 80 pressure of psi.

Safety Precautions

Spraying any liquid will always create increased vapour/fumes. Always wear a suitable mask and eye/skin protection when spraying.
