Universal Ethafoam Gasket 3-Pack

The Ethafoam gasket, located within the lid assembly, is a versatile sealing component designed to fit both Apollo and Fuji applicators. Made from high-quality Ethafoam material, this gasket provides excellent compression and resilience properties, allowing it to conform to the contours of the applicator. The Ethafoam gasket plays a crucial role in preventing leakage, minimizing air or fluid loss, and maintaining consistent pressure within the applicator. By creating a reliable seal, it helps to optimize the performance of the spray system, ensuring efficient and precise spray patterns.

The frequency of replacing the ethafoam gasket in your spray tan HVLP applicator can vary depending on several factors, such as frequency of use, maintenance practices, and overall condition. However, there are a few indicators that can help determine when it may be time for replacement:

1. Visible wear and tear: Inspect the ethafoam gasket regularly for signs of damage, such as cracks, tears, or deterioration. If you notice any significant wear or damage, it is likely time to replace the gasket.
2. Loss of elasticity: Over time, the ethafoam gasket may lose its original elasticity and become compressed or flattened. If the gasket no longer provides a firm and reliable seal, it should be replaced to ensure optimal performance.
3. Leakage or poor seal: If you experience issues with leakage, air loss, or inconsistent spray patterns despite proper maintenance and adjustments, it could be an indication that the ethafoam gasket needs replacement.
4. Reduced efficiency: If you notice a decline in the overall efficiency or performance of your spray tan HVLP system, it is worth considering the condition of the ethafoam gasket as a potential factor.

It is generally recommended to periodically inspect the ethafoam gasket and replace it as needed to maintain consistent and reliable sealing. Consult the manufacturer’s guidelines or recommendations for your specific HVLP applicator model for more precise instructions on when to replace the ethafoam gasket.
