Matthews Mixing Station?

[SignManiac]

Any shops using this setup and if so, pro's and cons?

I have one, use it every day. Cant think of any cons but many pro's like being able to match any color needed in small quantities instead of having a zillion half used quarts on the shelf. I just hit the mix button once or twice a day and it keeps all the paint from settling which is fantastic, especially the metallics. Let me know if you have any specific questions.

Thanks Brian, I put in a request on their website for someone to call me. Just need to know what initial cost is to get one setup in the shop.

i used to be a NAPA outside salesman. at that time we would set up auto body shops with a FREE paint mixing system. and then they would BUY ALL THE PAINT PRODUCTS that went with that paint. when i was working there ACRYLIC ENAMEL was the hot product. now its urethanes and in calif water base auto paint. check with NAPA, DUPONT, SIIKENS, BASF & HOK.
