    Abstract: Apparatus, systems and methods for applying fluidized materials to surfaces are encompassed by the present disclosure. The apparatus and systems can include a movable carriage supporting an applicator mount assembly that receives a fluidized material applicator for applying a fluidized material to a surface. The applicator system can move a fluidized material applicator in a reciprocating cycle along a horizontal path and allow for the pivotal rotation of the fluidized material applicator about a vertical axis while the applicator is applying a fluidized material to a surface. An accessory applicator system also is provided that can be used in conjunction with or separate and apart from the applicator system and can be used to apply a fluidized material to a surface via a roller, brush or similar non-spray applicator. The apparatus and systems encompassed by the present disclosure can be operated remotely away from the surface to which a fluidized material is applied.
