Cut through the complexity of today's vehicle repairs.

Achieving a successful paint job or repair starts from the beginning. As vehicle repairs become increasingly complex, the way in which work gets done continuously evolves. Removing all visual indications of a repair can be quite the task, but it doesn’t always have to be.

What happens at the start of the process lays the foundation for a quality result in the end. Skipping key steps like researching OEM procedures, creating a solid repair plan, and even glossing over pre-scans and calibration could create some headaches before you even pickup a tool. While there are a variety of ways we could help adjust and improve processes during body repair, let’s take a closer look at the surface and paint preparation process.
