3M™ PPS™ Mini Cups/Collars and Lids/Liners, 16514, 462 kits per case

Excellent for efficiently stocking PPS™ Mini-sized components, 3M™ PPS™ Cups/Collars & Lids/Liners are pre-assembled kits containing hard cups, collars, disposable lids and disposable liners specifically for use with the 3M™ Paint Preparation System (PPS™). 3M designed the PPS™ system with hard cups and disposable liners – users can simply dispose of the liner after use and fit a new one into the reusable hard cup. The collars provide a tight fit for lids onto the cups. Each PPS lid features a welded-in filter which effectively strains paint material during application. Choose lids with 125 micron filters, which are often recommended for waterborne paint materials; or 200 micron filters for traditional solvent-based paint materials. Always reference your paint manufacturer to ensure the recommended filter to strain the material.

Cups, collars, lids and liners are Mini sized, allowing technicians to mix graduated measurements of up to 6 fluid oz. (180 mL), ideal for 1-panel repairs. Correct mixes are best achieved when also using with a 3M™ PPS™ Mix Ratio Insert, or a weight scale. Mix ratio film inserts are sold separately.  Each kit also includes sealing plugs for temporary sealing and protection of unused material.

Unlike conventional paint cup systems, 3M™ PPS™ eliminates the need for mixing paint in additional paint mix cups and then transferring the paint through a separate filter into a paint reservoir. This is an important advantage because waste occurs every time that a user transfers paint through mixing cups and filters. With PPS™, you place the disposable liner within the re-usable PPS™ Cup. Then simply mix the paint in the PPS™ disposable liner, snap the disposable lid (with the pre-welded filter) in place and attach the locking collar to complete the PPS™ System. With just these few simple steps, you're ready to start spraying.

PPS™ allows the painter to spray consistently 90° to the part, no matter how the part is positioned. This makes material transfer more consistent, limits paint overspray and lowers paint consumption. Because PPS is a closed system, you can operate in any orientation -  i.e. 360 degrees.

After spraying, the painter can use a sealing plug to seal and protect paint materials or simply discard disposable lid and liner, leaving only the adapter and spray gun to clean. Discard the disposable lid and liner in the appropriate approved waste containers specified by the paint manufacturer and local government requirements. Use a small amount of solvent for cleaning the spray gun and the PPS™ adapter. With this disposable paint system, shops are often experiencing a 70% reduction in cleaning solvents, which means solvent cleaning savings and solvent disposal savings. Most guns can be cleaned with less than 3 oz. of solvent.

Specifically designed PPS™ stainless steel metal adapters allow painters to use the PPS™ system with virtually any spray gun. Painters have also the option to use the 3M™ Accuspray™ ONE spray gun, which requires no adapters. Technicians have found that this spray gun further reduces cleaning solvent usage and cleaning and maintenance time.

Because the painter uses a new disposable lid (with welded-in filter) and disposable liner for each mix, there is less risk of outside contamination due to mixing, filtering, and clean up. Using a fresh lid and liner with each paint job, rather than washing out reusable components, often improves overall productivity in prep and clean-up time by as much as 50%.

3M™ PPS™ is an all-in-one disposable painting system that produces cleaner jobs, saves on paint consumption and reduces solvent usage by up to 70%. You'll find that technicians operate with greater efficiency and spend less time on cleaning tasks. 3M PPS offers many advantages for any one spraying
