Summary:A system and method for coating glass gobs (30) with a liquid-based lubricating dispersion during their drop to blank glass container molds (34) which provides sufficient lubrication to the glass container molds without requiring swabbing of the glass container molds. The lubricating dispersion is sprayed onto hot glass gobs as they fall from the gob supply system (32) through an enclosure (50) prior to their distribution by the gob distribution system (42) into blank molds (34). The lubricating dispersion coats the falling glass gobs to lubricate the glass gobs as well as the molds.
