Default Scoop coater in the UK

Hey I was wondering where I could buy a scoop coater in the UK because from what I found so far I'll have to have it shipped over from abroad. I live in England and if anyone knows any places where I could buy them about 15 inches-ish wide and relatively cheap as I'm only starting out .

Be gentle its only my first post lol.
Thanks

Where do I go on the site for scoop coaters because I was snooping around for awhile but couldn't find any or do I just have to contact them?

You should try living in Norway. The cost of one 20"x24" screen with 110 mesh is about 100US$. I buy mine from the US and with shipping i cut the cost by 2/3.

I quite agree as I,ve had the same experience. Easier to order from US suppliers you can end up much cheaper.
cheers.

I think Colenso and Screen in and Solvents sell scoop coaters by the inch. Make sure you get ends as sometimes they are not supplied with the coater and need to be bought as an extra.

I have been searching for these things for a long time. some places don't even know what i'm talking about. they call them coating troughs or screen coating troughs in the uk.

Wicked Printing Stuff
is the cheapest place i've found so far.

this is the other slightly more money.
T N Lawrence & Son Ltd Screen Coating Troughs

i don't know why it's such a big deal in the uk. i even phoned london graphics in covent garden which is a big store and they even sell them. i asked how do they apply emulsion and they said they pour it onto the screen and spread it with the squeegee.

it's so annoying. wonder if anyone wants to sell theirs second hand.

anyone?
