I have found the Touch Up Sprayers from harbor freight (often on sale for $10) are great for spraying epoxy...and when it is so gummed up internally that you cant use it anymore keep the bottom can, throw the top away and get another.

Of course you need a compressor...

Yep, that's the ticket. Cheap touch-up sprayers. I try to clean em good so they last longer, actually they'll do quite a few bows... but they're cheap enough I don't feel bad about throwing them out and getting another one.

I too save some of the parts for spares, and they've come in handy in times of 'crisis'.

That gave me an idea.... they're so cheap, I should go buy a new gun... just in case.

I use devilbis finish line sprayer. cost 150 for the entire set up, but does an excellent job. Have used it on hundreds of bows and still going strong.
