ABSTRACT:
An apparatus for applying a coating to a surface. Preferably, the coating is a polymer fortified cement applied to protect various surfaces. The apparatus includes a support frame and a tank for storing coating materials. The tank is operably associated with the support frame. The tank includes a dispensing conduit for dispensing coating materials onto a surface. The apparatus further includes a coating material applicator operably associated with the support frame for applying the coating material to a surface. In other words, the coating applicator is directly or indirectly connected (i.e. operably associated) to the support frame to apply the coating material to a surface. The coating material applicator includes a first blade, a finishing blade and at least one end blade. The end blade is configured such that the portion directly adjacent the surface to be coated is the thinnest portion of the end blade. Such a configuration eliminates the wide tracks and ridges left by other applicators when applying various coatings such as polymer fortified cement. The end blade is readily and easily adjusted so that its position relative to the surface to be coated can be varied. This feature enables the operator to maintain the desired downward pressure on the surface to be coated.
