Abstract: A method and device of treating an irregularly shaped article to prepare the article for painting is provided. The device includes a burner which can produce an adjustable flame tongue which can fit into crevices, openings and other irregular topographical features of an item to be painted or otherwise coated. The burner device further provides means to apply a grafting chemical on a freshly oxidized surface. Further, the invention provides means to colorize treated objects so that they may be recognized as having been treated. In another embodiment, the grafting chemicals may be enhanced with electrolytic solutions such that electrostatic methods of painting may be subsequently employed on the item. In an alternate embodiment, the burner is adapted to spray a powder inside of a generally enclosed flame, and is used in conjunction with chop guns to manufacture glass or carbon fiber preforms.

Abstract: The present invention comprises a conveyor assembly for carrying an item that has been painted by over-spray or dipping to a cleaning chamber where a cleaning means, typically a high pressure water cleaning device, is used to remove paint layers from an inadvertently painted item. The cleaning chamber further comprises a pool having an elongated drainage element such that water may be drained off from the top of the surface of the pool while the paint layers are deposited into the pool. The paint layers may subsequently be removed from the pool and disposed of properly. The invention further comprises a method of using the cleaning chamber, high pressure water cleaning device, pool and drainage device to clean items used to hold items to be painted.
