1) A system useful for providing coatings to surfaces, which comprises:
- a) a mixer means, said mixer having a first mixer inlet and a second mixer inlet, wherein said mixer means is adapted to receive two separate chemical feeds and permit their admixture, said mixer further comprising a mixer outlet;
- b) a first component metering system comprising;
- i) a first component reservoir having an interior;
- ii) a first peristaltic pump means, comprising a first tube having an inlet end and an outlet end, and a first peristaltic pump head sufficiently disposed along the length of said first tube, between its inlet end and said outlet end, so that when said first peristaltic pump head is operational, it causes the fluid present in the interior of that portion of the first tube that is disposed between said first peristaltic pump head and the inlet end of said first tube to exist at a first pressure, and simultaneously causes the fluid present in the interior of the portion of the first tube that is disposed between said first peristaltic pump head and the outlet end of said first tube to exist at a second pressure that is higher than said first pressure,
- wherein said inlet end of said first tube is in fluid communication with the interior of said first component reservoir, and wherein said outlet end of said first tube is in fluid communication with said first mixer inlet;
- c) a second component metering system comprising;
- i) a second component reservoir having an interior;
- ii) a second peristaltic pump means, comprising a second tube having an inlet end and an outlet end, and a second peristaltic pump head sufficiently disposed along the length of said second tube, between its inlet end and said outlet end, so that when said second peristaltic pump head is operational, it causes the fluid present in the interior of the portion of the second tube that is disposed between said second peristaltic pump head and the inlet end of said second tube to exist at a third pressure, and simultaneously causes the fluid present in the interior of the portion of the second tube that is disposed between said second peristaltic pump head and the outlet end of said second tube to exist at a fourth pressure that is higher than said third pressure,
- wherein said inlet end of said second tube is in fluid communication with the interior of said second component reservoir, and wherein said outlet end of said second tube is in fluid communication with said second mixer inlet;
- d) a mixer effluent line, having a first end portion and a second end portion, wherein said first end portion of said mixer effluent line is in fluid communication with said mixer outlet;
- e) an atomizing nozzle having a fluid inlet, wherein said fluid inlet of said atomizing nozzle is in fluid communication with said second end portion of said mixer effluent line.
