Abstract

A closed pressurized spray container is provided. The container includes a nozzle assembly interconnected with the delivery passageway or conduit from the self contained closed pressurized container. The nozzle assembly has a first and second passageway, preferably conduits which are connected to a mechanical break up chamber which is connected to the delivery passageway or conduit of the pressurized container. The first and second passageways split and splits the fluid preferably a pan coating exiting from the mechanical break up chamber into two streams. Each conduit has a fluid outlet to the atmosphere. The first and second conduits in combination with said fluid outlets define a discharge axis. The first fluid conduit discharge axis intersects the second fluid discharge axis at an impingement angle .beta. of from 10.degree. to 170.degree. so that the pan coating exiting each outlet intersects at a point exterior to the nozzle. As a result the fluid exiting the first outlet collides with the pan coating exiting from the second outlet to break the pan coating into small droplets to form a wide angle mist for application to a surface.
