3M PPS Series 2.0 Spray Cup System

The 3M PPS Series 2.0 (Paint Preparation System) is a leading disposable spray cup solution used globally in automotive collision repair and industrial painting. Invented by 3M, this system revolutionized the painting process by allowing painters to mix, filter, and spray from a single cup, significantly reducing solvent use and cleaning time.

Originally founded in 1902 in Two Harbors, Minnesota, the Minnesota Mining and Manufacturing Company (3M) has grown into a massive multinational conglomerate. Most PPS components are manufactured in the United States, specifically in facilities located in the Midwest, although 3M maintains a vast global supply chain to support its international markets. The brand remains under the ultimate ownership of 3M Company, which continues to drive innovation in material science and industrial safety from its headquarters in Maplewood, Minnesota.
