Graco® Launches New Fine Finish Spray Packages

Minneapolis, MN, March 28, 2009 --(PR.com)-- Graco introduces new Merkur™ high-performance spray packages for fine finish applications. These improved spray packages are designed to outlast and outperform other packages in their class.

“The new features on these spray packages offer greater precision and increase efficiency to achieve consistent, uniform results,” says Graco’s Wendy Hartley, Finishing Marketing Manager. “For the first time, these packages are available with DataTrak™, the market’s first integrated local monitoring system providing material tracking, system diagnostics and runaway control.”

Both the air motor and lower included in the spray packages are designed for optimal performance. The air motor features smooth and rapid changeovers, resulting in minimal pulsation, no stalling and precision control even at low input pressures; ultimately providing even, consistent finishes. Lowers have an easy-to-flush design that makes color changes quicker and minimizes the volume of solvents for cleaning, also reducing downtime and costs. Stainless steel pump construction provides long life and fewer replacement costs.

With more models and configurations to choose from, Graco’s new Merkur spray packages will meet the needs and required versatility of nearly every finishing spray application. The innovative engineering and design built into the new features ensure high performance and durability of the spray packages.

Graco’s applicators, pumps, packages and plural-component equipment provide finishing solutions for all types of wood, metal and plastic applications. For more information about the Merkur spray packages, please visit www.graco.com/merkurinfo, or call a Graco representative at 877-844-7226.
