Graco launches line of airless disinfectant sprayers T In an effort to do their part to prevent the spread of COVID-19, Graco recently developed and launched the SaniSpray HP, the industry’s first airless high-production sprayer built specifically for sanitizing, disinfecting and deodorizing jobs. While it uses the same technology found in Graco airless sprayers for coatings, much of the machine had to be reworked to accommodate the disinfecting product going through the system. The new purpose-built sprayer comes in five models ranging from handheld to larger units that can run multiple hoses and applicators—providing options for pros who use anywhere from 15 gallons of disinfectant a week to those who need to sanitize arenas and other large public spaces and might go through more than 300 gallons of sanitizer a week.

PPG ULTRALAST interior paint + primer features CLEAN SURFACE TECHNOLOGY
T PPG Paints recently responded to consumer demand for an interior product that allows them to wash off everyday stains and scuffs with ease and provides a durable barrier against future stains with the introduction of ULTRALAST interior paint + primer. Featuring CLEAN SURFACE TECHNOLOGY, an integration of both automotive exterior and consumer electronics coatings technology, this super-premium paint repels stubborn stains, preventing them from seeping into the paint film, to help extend the freshly painted look of interior walls. Ideal for high-use areas such as in kitchens, bathrooms, playrooms, restaurants, retail spaces, educational facilities and other commercial spaces, it reduces the need for abrasive cleaners and sponges that remove color from walls and cause burnishing. The dry paint film also resists mildew. Exceptional stain and scuff resistance may extend repaint cycles, which could help save time and money. Available at PPG Paint stores, select independent retailers, and The Home Depot. PPGPaints.com/ultralast
