1. A robotic painting apparatus including two adjacent paint reservoirs mounted side-by-side on a robot arm and adapted to operate as an electrostatic direct charge painting system, comprising:

  • an electrostatic barrier formed from an electrical insulating material, the barrier being disposed on the robot arm between the two adjacent paint reservoirs wherein there is no straight line path between the paint reservoirs that does not pass through the barrier, the barrier electrostatically insulating the paint reservoirs from each other thereby preventing formation of a ground path or short circuit between the paint reservoirs.
