A tool used to apply paint in a fine spray, typically powered by compressed air or an airless system.

INFO

What it is

A spray gun is the tool that applies paint as a fine, atomised spray. Powered by compressed air or high fluid pressure, it lays coatings down evenly across a surface.

Why it matters

The spray gun is central to the quality and speed of spray finishing. The right gun, correctly set up, delivers the smooth, mark-free finish that defines professional spray work.

Where it is used on a project

Used on virtually every job, with the type, air-fed or airless, matched to the coating, the surface, and the finish required.

How NECC approaches it

We use professional spray equipment matched to each task and keep it well maintained and correctly set up, achieving consistent, flawless finishes across every surface.
