AT announcement has come from HWP Motor Bodies Ltd., of Hexthorpe, Doncaster, that they have just commissioned the three new heated spray-booths supplied to them by Volspray Ltd. Two of the booths are 45ft. long and capable of accommodating all but the very largest commercial vehicles, whilst the third is suitable for small vans.
When ambient temperatures are in the region of 30°F. and all three booths are in operation the 2,600,000 B.t.u. Thermobloc Multipass heater unit is capable of keeping the booth temperature at 65°F. minimum. This does, of course, prevent operations coming to a standstill during very cold weather, and whilst it does not provide for high-speed drying it does ensure consistent drying times much faster than those obtainable at ambient temperatures.
