1. A mix chamber configured to be disposed in a bore of a plural component spray gun and configured for receiving a first component fluid from a first fluid channel in the plural component spray gun and a second component fluid from a second fluid channel in the plural component spray gun, a first side seal is disposed in the first fluid channel to seal against the mix chamber and a second side seal is disposed in the second fluid channel to seal against the mix chamber, the mix chamber comprising:
a chamber body extending between a first end and a second end and elongate along a body axis, the chamber body including a first flat lateral side and a second flat lateral side, a portion of the first flat lateral side radially aligned with a first location along the body axis such that a first line perpendicular to the body axis extends through the first flat lateral side from the first location, and a portion of the second flat lateral side radially aligned with the first location along the body axis such that a second line perpendicular to the body axis extends through the first flat lateral side from the first location;
a first inlet bore extending into the first flat lateral side and to a mix bore extending to a spray orifice, the first inlet bore configured to receive the first component fluid from the first fluid channel;
a second inlet bore extending into the second flat lateral side and to the mix bore, the second inlet bore configured to receive the second component fluid from the second fluid channel;
a slot extending into at least one of the top side and the bottom side, the slot extending into the body such that a portion of the slot is radially aligned with the first location along the body axis such that a third line perpendicular to the body axis and extending from the first location intersects the slot; and
a head extending from the first end of the chamber body.
