A device is disclosed for the automatic spray application of paint. The device has a paint container and a spray nozzle arranged in close connection and adapted to provide paint from the container to the spray nozzle during the spray application. A dosing apparatus regulates the compression of an external surface against the inner volume of the paint container and thereby forces paint out of the container and into the spray nozzle through an opening of the container. A number of receiving members are adapted to receive and hold the paint container close to the spray nozzle, such that the paint container is detachable and removable from the device when replacing a paint container. The paint container has an elongated feeding tube, at its opening, that is held by the receiving members when the tube is inserted in the nozzle.
