A device (10) for coating an exterior of an elongate object (36) includes a housing structure (22) with an elongate chamber (30) having first and second opposite ends (33, 34). A port (35) communicates with the first end for receiving the elongate object and an outlet is located at the second end. An air supply passage (56) and a coating material supply passage (74) communicate with the elongate chamber. Pressurized air and coating material are adapted to enter the elongate chamber through the air supply passage and the coating material supply passage, respectively, to form a mist in the elongate chamber moving toward the outlet while coating the exterior of the object. A method of coating an exterior surface of the elongate object with the coating material includes holding the elongate object lengthwise in the elongate chamber, mixing the pressurized air and the coating material to form a mist, and coating the exterior surface while directing the mist around the exterior surface and toward the outlet of the elongate chamber.
