ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE Can bodies are held by means, such as a vacuum, magnetic or other means onto rotating, disc-shaped pads which accompany the cans throughout an indexing route. A can centering guide positions each can on the center of one of the pads to insure eventual alignment with spray guns at two spray stations downstream. A spinner-drive belt encircles a turret and forms a substantially continuous rotational drive for spinning the can-bearing pads. When a vacuum means is employed, the vacuum means comprises a vacuum manifold in the rear of the turret and has manifold groove for vacuum communication with the can through the vacuum pad. As the can-bearing vacuum pads pass along the manifold groove, the cans, being securely centered on the vacuum pads, rotate at the same velocity as the belt-drive vacuum pads.
