HOW TO SPRAY GLUE



The Industry standard for Glue is Conventional guns due to their wide spray pattern and strong atomization power. At TP we recommend Conventional guns, however, HVLP is an alternative for those not interested in speed but concerned about overspray. Pressure pots are generally the guns of choice in order to move the glue. At TP we have a true glue or laminate systems. While slightly more expensive, it is well worth the $20 or so over Binks or DeVilbiss Systems.
What Type of Tip should I Select?
Please note any gun with the correct tip selection will work. There are only a few "True" glue guns. The rest are simply spray guns with the correct setups.
