PPG has launched the PPG Quickline waterborne refinish system.

According to a news release, the new portfolio of basecoats, undercoats, clearcoats, toners and ancillary products are designed to help collision repair shops consistently achieve high-quality finishes across a wide range of application conditions. The PPG Quickline refinish system offers a complete line of toners, undercoats, and clearcoats designed to meet the needs of today’s body shops. 

“Not all body shops operate under ideal conditions, but they all need to deliver quality repairs consistently,” said Brian Osterried, PPG collision operational product manager, Automotive Refinish. “The PPG Quickline system is designed to help shops achieve reliable results in a variety of environments while balancing performance, productivity and affordability. It gives them a practical, high-value solution backed by PPG’s industry-leading support and color technology.” 

Key benefits of the system include:
