Brought to you by TQC Sheen, our paint testing specialist brand, our range of TQC Sheen Cube Applicators: your go-to solution for achieving a uniform coating film thickness with precision and ease.
Each cube applicator has two pre-defined gap sizes – either as a single reservoir or as a triple reservoir.
In particular, we have an extensive range of single-reservoir cube applicators to choose from, either in 12 mm, 25 mm or 40 mm film width across a range of micrometers. The triple-reservoir cube applicator is available for 3 x 20 mm film width and is designed with predefined thicknesses of 90 and 150 µm.
All are made from high-grade materials, so they are built to last and with extreme care providing accuracy levels of +/- 2 µm.
