Whats New At Apollo?
Introducing the Apollo Black Edition 7700 Atomizer Gun
New Features + a Pro Tip Every Painter Should Know
Apollo has raised the bar once again with the release of the Black Edition 7700 Atomizer Spray Gun, and this upgrade is more than just good looks. Designed for professional painters who demand performance, durability, and ease of use, the 7700 Black Edition delivers several smart improvements that make a real difference on the job
What’s New on the Apollo 7700 Black Edition?
Apollo introduced four key upgrades to the 7700 Atomizer Gun, and each one solves a common pain point painters experience in the field.
1. Fan Pattern Indicator Markings
The fan indicator ring now includes clear markings, allowing you to know exactly where your spray pattern is set. This makes adjustments faster, more precise, and more repeatable—especially helpful when switching between materials or surfaces
2. Single-Hole Distributor Plate (No More Guesswork)
The updated distributor plate features a single-hole design, which means it can only be installed one way. No more accidentally putting it in backward—this ensures consistent spray performance every time you reassemble your gun
3. Matte Black, Scratch-Resistant Finish
The Black Edition isn’t just about style. The matte black finish is scratch-resistant, built to handle job-site abuse while still looking sharp. It’s a professional tool that looks as good as it performs
4. Oversized Trigger Bushing for Longer Life
Apollo upgraded the internal trigger bushing to a larger, more durable design. This improves longevity, prevents the bushing from coming loose, and keeps the trigger action smooth over time
Pro Tip: Stop Paint from Drying on Your Spray Tip
Every painter has dealt with this frustration: you step away for lunch, come back, pull the trigger—and nothing comes out because paint has dried on the nozzle tip.
Here’s a simple pro tip that can save you time and aggravation
👉 Use chapstick or beeswax-based lip balm.
How it works:
- Take a small amount of chapstick or beeswax lip balm.
- Rub it lightly on your fingertip.
- Apply a thin coat to the tip of the spray nozzle.
The result? Paint won’t stick or dry on the tip, dramatically reducing clogs when you step away from the gun. It’s an easy, inexpensive trick that keeps you spraying smoothly and avoids unnecessary downtime
Why the Apollo 7700 Black Edition Is Worth It
Between the thoughtful design upgrades and real-world usability improvements, the Apollo Black Edition 7700 Atomizer Gun is built for professionals who want reliability and efficiency on every job. Add in simple tips like protecting your nozzle from dried paint, and you’ll get cleaner finishes with less frustration.
If you’re looking for one of the best atomizer guns you’ll ever use, the Apollo 7700 Black Edition is a standout choice.
