Creosote Applicator...???


Logged On

Recommended Posts

We have a mountain of creosoting to do this year, and are looking for a faster / easier way to apply creosote..

 

A while ago (A few years), brushing took too long, so he tried the sprayer type applicator, but the creosote just 'ate' the sprayer.

 

So this year, he's thinking of a 'Shultz Gun' kind of thing, metal with no moving parts, and all it needs is an air supply.

 

Obviously, there maybe a mist etc to be wary of, but as usual we'll be booted, suited and masked using this stuff too.

 

Thoughts...???

I only have a small compressor, so use a gravity fed spray gun its the most efficent way to apply creosote I have found. you have to watch out for bits of contamination getting lodged in the nozzel of the gun buts its a small price to pay! Also Get a good full face respirator,
