Available Product Configurations

Do not describe all components as PP unless the material of every supplied part has been verified.

Capacity Selection Guide

Capacity should be selected according to the expected mixed-coating volume, repair area, application stage and bodyshop procedure.

These are general purchasing directions. Usable working capacity, headspace requirements and exact cup dimensions should be confirmed in the approved specification.

Mixing-Ratio Scale Options

Available configurations can include:

2:1 / 3:1 / 4:1 / 5:1 / 6:1 / 7:1 / 8:1

The printed scales support preparation of compatible multi-component automotive coatings. They do not determine the correct formulation. Buyers and technicians must follow the coating manufacturer's technical data sheet for the required ratio, component sequence and reduction percentage.

Before placing a bulk or OEM order, confirm:

• Which scales appear on each capacity
• Whether volume graduations are also printed
• Graduation unit and interval
• Printing color and position
• Scale tolerance and inspection method
• Print adhesion and solvent-contact requirements

Transparent PP Cup Construction

The transparent PP cup allows technicians to monitor prepared and remaining coating during mixing and spraying. Its lightweight construction is intended for controlled disposable use in automotive paint-preparation environments.

Buyer Benefits

• Visible coating level
• Easier monitoring during preparation
• Multiple printed ratio scales
• Lightweight handling
• Reduced reusable-cup cleaning between suitable jobs

Chemical compatibility depends on the complete coating or solvent formulation, concentration, temperature and contact time. Test the intended coating, hardener, reducer and cleaning solvent before bulk use.

Spray Gun and Adapter Compatibility

The cup system does not connect universally to every spray gun. Direct spray use depends on the supplied lid or connection and the correct adapter for the spray gun interface.

Information Required From the Buyer

• Spray gun brand
• Spray gun model
• Existing cup connection or thread
• Required adapter material
• Whether the adapter is included or ordered separately
• Required sealing and orientation performance

Compatibility should be confirmed using the actual spray gun and approved sample before a production order.

Define the Kit Before Ordering

The term “paint cup system” can refer to different component combinations. The quotation and purchase order should clearly state what is supplied.

Possible Components to Confirm

• Transparent outer or mixing cup
• Disposable inner liner, if applicable
• Lid
• Integrated filter, if applicable
• Sealing plug
• Locking collar or ring
• Spray gun adapter
• Mixing stick
• Printed instructions

The exact kit composition must be confirmed; components should not be shown in product images or listed in the title unless they are included in the quoted configuration.

Recommended Quality-Control Points for Bulk Orders

1. Visual Appearance

Check for cracks, deformation, contamination, sharp edges and obvious molding defects.

2. Capacity and Dimensions

Verify nominal capacity, relevant diameters, height and connection dimensions against the approved drawing.

3. Ratio and Volume Printing

Check scale accuracy, legibility, position, print adhesion and consistency.

4. Component Fit

Confirm the lid, collar, plug and adapter fit the approved cup configuration.

5. Connection Integrity

Where applicable, check that the assembled system remains securely connected under the agreed test conditions.

6. Leakage or Sealing Test

Define test liquid, fill volume, orientation, duration and acceptance criteria before testing.

7. Material Compatibility

Conduct controlled contact testing using the buyer's intended coating and solvent system where compatibility is critical.

8. Cleanliness

Check for visible dust, plastic particles, molding residue and packaging contamination.

9. Packaging Accuracy

Verify component counts, labels, barcodes, instructions and carton marks.

10. Batch Sampling

Agree on sample quantity, inspection level and acceptance limits before production.

These are recommended procurement controls, not claims that every test is currently part of the factory's standard QC procedure. Confirm the approved inspection plan before publishing test statements.

Suitable Automotive Refinishing Applications

• Compatible automotive basecoat preparation
• Clear coat and hardener preparation
• Primer and sealer preparation
• Multi-component coating preparation
• Bodyshop repair and collision refinishing
• Vehicle restoration and professional spray-booth work

Hardener and reducer are components of a coating system, not independent application categories. Final suitability depends on the complete formulation and component compatibility.

Workflow Value for Bodyshops

Traditional process:

Mix → Transfer → Spray → Clean Reusable Cup

Compatible disposable system:

Mix → Close → Connect → Spray → Replace

When the complete cup system and adapter are compatible, fewer transfer and reusable-cup-cleaning steps can simplify color changes. Actual savings depend on job size, coating system, spray equipment and workshop procedure.

OEM and Wholesale Supply

Customization Options

• Distributor or brand logo printing
• Neutral or customized retail packaging
• Selected capacity configurations
• Ratio-scale layout and printing
• Component combination, subject to feasibility
• Carton printing, labels and shipping marks

Required OEM Information

Please provide:

Capacity + required components + ratio scales + spray gun brand/model + quantity + logo artwork + packing method + destination market + inspection requirements

The sales and technical teams can then confirm available adapters, sample arrangement, tooling or printing requirements, MOQ, lead time and quotation.

Complementary Bodyshop Consumables

For distributors building a broader paint-preparation range, the cup system may be sourced alongside separately quoted products such as:

• Paper paint strainers
• Mixing sticks
• Tack cloths
• Degreasing products
• Other automotive refinishing consumables

Each item should have its own specification, quotation and packing details. Do not imply that complementary products are included with the paint cup unless the offered kit states this clearly.
