Toronto, Ontario -- This week, 3M announced it is launching the 3M Performance Spray Gun 2.
On August 5, Jason Garfoot, global portfolio manager of 3M, unboxed the next-gen painting solution during a live YouTube demonstration.
“We are thrilled to introduce the new 3M Performance Spray Gun 2 to the industry. This is more than just a spray gun – it’s an application tool with precision performance that shops can rely on,” said Garfoot. “With enhanced performance and versatility, the 3M Performance Spray Gun 2 is an essential addition to any collision repair technician’s or painter’s toolkit.”
The 3M Performance Spray Gun 2 was designed with painters in mind, implementing their feedback on the original Performance Spray Gun to improve productivity and efficiency.
Its features include a carbon fibre spray gun frame, one-piece integrated hook design, laser marked control knobs, redesigned trigger, sleek spray gun-frame surface finish and compatibility with current 3M Performance Spray Gun replacement parts, nozzles and accessories.
According to the company, carbon fibre makes the gun easier to clean, while the offset trigger can be pulled with only one finger.
The integrated one-piece hook now matches the aesthetic of the gun and does not rattle as it had in the earlier model.
At the request of painters who wanted a higher quality gauge and on the Performance Spray Gun 2, the new model comes equipped with a multi-coloured face to indicate the range of air pressure to use for the different nozzles.
3M’s HVLP or Fine Finish Atomizing Heads are also compatible with the spray gun. The Fine Finish Nozzle range has now been expanded to 0.9 to 2.0, the same as the HVLP nozzle range. 3M’s launch of the Performance Spray Gun 2 completes its line of Fine Finish Nozzles.
