PW2-12 – Paint Pail Washers

Heavy-Duty PW2 to PW12 solvent pail washers are designed to automate the cleaning process of paint or thinner pails ranging from 1-gal to 5-gal.

They are made of industrial quality painted steel for durable use and trouble-free. An optional stainless steel finish is available to resist rusting and solvent spills.

Optional Clean Rinse allows you to obtain a better cleaning quality by
finishing the cleaning cycle with a separate clean solvent drum.
