RS Gel Coat Gun
Discover the next generation gel coat gun
Ergonomic gel coat gun for composites production
Innovations engineered into the Graco RS Gel Coat Gun are sure to make a difference in your production uptime. It's lighweight, ergonomic, designed for tool-less operation and fast, easy maintenance as well.
In addition, the Graco RS Gel Coat Gun delivers an excellent spray pattern with its Air Assist Containment (AAC) technology. AAC wraps the spray pattern in a containment shield of air - preventing atomized droplets from escaping the spray pattern. Less overspray reduces material waste and creates a healthier work area for employees.
