The invention recites a plasma-arc spray gun comprising a cathode and an anode defining a longitudinal axis. The anode further includes an external surface and an internal chamber, the internal chamber extending from a first end to a second end. At least a portion of the internal chamber is defined by revolving a non-linear curve about the longitudinal axis. The plasma-arc spray gun also includes a gun body supporting the cathode and the anode.
