A coating system which includes a sprayer capable of spraying a coating fluid onto a target surface and mounted spaced apart from a conveyor assembly bed on which a target surface is operatively located, characterised in that an electromagnetic radiation emitting device configured to produce a beam of electromagnetic radiation is located adjacent the sprayer and is directed towards spray produced by the sprayer in use so as to be operable to cause a degree of evaporation of solvent in the spray to increase a of the spray.
