I used Stat-Gun as an apprentice and now I use it in my own business.
When I started out as an apprentice back in 2016, I had no real idea that static was a big issue. But both my bodywork college, and the body shop I then worked for, had Stat-Guns and I started to see the real difference they could make, by reducing dirt inclusions and paint lay downs.
Due to the products we use for silver paints, it's very easy to end up with lines, especially on bumpers and when painting new bare plastic bumpers.
Now that I have my own business, I use Stat-Gun every day. Before getting Stat-Gun, I used to get dirt inclusions which would mean I had to spend quite a bit of time flatting and polishing the entire panel. Using Stat-Gun now saves me loads of time, and I use a lot less wet and dry paper.
It’s really solid in your hand, which helps with manoeuvring it over the surface of a vehicle. I give it a quick clean with a panel wipe between jobs, just in case there is any sprayback.
“I’ve been using it in my own business now since 2021, and the customer support I get from the guys at Static Solutions is amazing. Any questions I have are always answered, if a new model comes out I’m updated, and I immediately receive a replacement if there’s an upgrade or any damage to the unit. I have zero complaints about the service received from the whole team!”
