chopper gun mfg

I just lost my entire fiberglass shop to a fire Fri evening. I have a small business with 13 employees and need to find a chopper gun setup ASAP.
Who offers them ?
We have been using an OLD glasscraft setup that worked absolutly perfect for our low production business.
Any help would certainly be helpfull and appreciated

I use an old Magnum. Much better then glas craft or venus which i've also used exstensively. Magnum has a new system that will let you chop into a quart cup without getting any over spray outside of the cup. I'll see if i can find a contact on the web. If i can't i'll get you a number and get it to you ASAP. I priced out a new system with a 20ft. wall mount boom for aprox. $7200.00 . As soon as i have the cash to blow i'll have one. Tom.

Go to www.mvpind.com this site will give you some info on the chopper and also there contact info. They will be able to tell you where there nearest distributor is. The one that i deal with is in Indiana and i'm in Ohio. I see your in Michigan. They will probably come to you and demo a machine. If you need and further help let me know. I resently bought a mini pro gelcoater from them and it works very well. Good Luck. Tom.

I have a few chopper gun systems for sale. One is an older Glas Craft system that uses a catalyst injection system. I have a lot of extra parts including a pump and catalyzer. The other system is a Binks, which is in very good condition. The model number is 105-1326. I also have two Binks gel coaters. Their model numbers are 205-951U and 105-1368. You can see these systems on the Binks website.

Send me an email if interested.
