A method and apparatus for spraying a solid particulate powder onto the interior surface of tubular articles by intermittently pumping the powder from a fluidized bed of powder through a powder supply line containing an intermittently operated venturi pump and air amplifier, as well as a pair of constantly operated air diffusers and an electrostatic charging apparatus. A powder collection shroud adjacent at least one open end of the tubular article has a carefully regulated vacuum applied thereto in order to collect oversprayed powders.
