The fluid dynamics of a film sprayed on a stretching cylinder is solved using similarity transform. The problem is governed by a stretching Reynolds number R and the mass flux rate, which is related to the film thickness. Perturbation solutions for small and large R compare well with exact numerical solutions of the universal curves. The heat transfer problem is discussed.
