A system for automatically applying multiple coats of paint to pencils from a pencil production line comprises a plurality of paint stations arranged for sequentially applying respective coats of paint to the pencils. Each paint station includes a painting device, supply conveyor means for discharging pencils to that device and drying conveyor means for receiving pencils from the device. The first station in sequence receives pencils directly from the production line, and the conveyor means of consecutive stations are arranged so that the pencils are transported from one station to the next, all without manual intervention.
