Abstract: A nozzle assembly for a painting system including an outer wall, an inner wall and a pair of electrodes. The inner wall defines a paint passage through which paint is dispensed. The inner wall is spaced from the outer wall to define a fluid passage between an outer surface of the inner wall and an inner surface of the outer wall. The pair of electrodes extend circumferentially around an outer surface of the inner wall. The pair of electrodes are configured to be electrically connected to a power source. The fluid passage is configured to receive a fluid. Upon supplying power to the pair of electrodes, water droplets are separated from the fluid in the fluid passage and pass through the inner wall to coat an inner surface of the inner wall to facilitate movement of the paint through the paint passage.
