Powder Paint Fluid Beds are the most popular method for precise powder painting. The fluid bed consists of a 3" diameter by 3" deep powder cup, the base that contains the air chamber and regulator and an air pump. The fluid bed suspends the powder paint on a column of slow moving air. When the heated item to be painted is suspended in the powder paint the result is a beautiful, thin uniform coat of paint. Spare paint cups with lids are available. Direction included with this product.
