A painting apparatus comprising a paint module 20, an applicator assembly 50, and a dip-tube assembly 80 containing a pump 86, the applicator assembly being fluidly connectable to liquid in the paint module via the dip-tube assembly, in which the pump is arranged within the dip-tube such that the pump is submerged in the liquid to substantially drive liquid away from the pump when supplying liquid to the applicator assembly. The paint module includes a module motor 60 and a module gear drive wheel 90 which engages with a drive gear wheel 130, the pump comprising two meshed gears 140, 142 which is connected via drive shaft 89 to gear 130. More efficient pumping is obtained. |
