Axalta, a leading global supplier of automotive paint and coatings, has launched an ongoing series of refinish training videos. These are designed to help automotive repair bodyshops deal with troublesome, yet common paint defects. The series includes tips to fix common paint issues that bodyshops often encounter. This initiative is particularly significant for bodyshops aiming to address recurring paint issues efficiently. In fact, if you are seeking tips to fix common paint issues, these videos are an essential resource.
Addressing Common Paint Defects
The first six videos are available now, to view free of charge. The videos cover a range of issues refinishers deal with regularly, including poor paint adhesion on plastic parts, solvent popping, peroxide bleeding, water spotting, poor opacity and correct sanding. These resources provide practical help for anyone working in or managing bodyshops regardless of their global location. In addition, the videos also showcase the truly global nature of Axalta’s Refinish business. Presenters represent Axalta Refinish training leaders from EMEA, the US, Australia and Asia.
Practical Learning for Better Paint Quality
Each tutorial video runs for less than four minutes and clearly explains each paint defect, its causes, practical repair solutions, and, most importantly, the preventive measures refinishers can take to avoid poor results from occurring in the first place. It’s of great benefit for bodyshops looking to improve outcomes and enhance service quality. Moreover, these segments are filled with practical tips to fix common paint issues for bodyshops of any size.
Supporting Excellence in Automotive Refinishing
Tony Mitchell, International Training Leader for Axalta’s Refinish business in Europe, Middle East and Africa, says, “We know our bodyshops strive for 100% customer satisfaction so it is always disappointing when preventable issues affect the quality of paint finishes. This series of videos support refinishers not only to excel at the paint repair process, but also to add value for their customers around the world every single time. What’s more, the videos are accessible to everyone, so we are pleased to offer our wealth of coatings experience to everyone, Axalta customer or not.” In this way, bodyshops gain valuable insights regardless of their size or customer base. Additionally, tips to fix common paint issues can give bodyshops an edge in customer satisfaction.
