Excerpt from Concentrated Spray Mixtures and Their Application by Ground and Aerial Equipment as Compared With Standard Spraying and Dusting Methods Although a new kind of equipment is needed for applying concentrated Sprays, certain types of ready - made devices, such as hand atomizers, paint Spray outfits, and conventional sprayers equipped with Special nozzles, can be used at present or modified and assembled for use.
