BASF to showcase automotive refinish solutions that support profitability at NACE

BASF will share its latest automotive refinish solutions to improve collision center productivity and enhance profitability at Booth #1535 at the 2013 International Autobody Collision Exposition (NACE), Oct. 16-18, at the Mandalay Bay Convention Center in Las Vegas. BASF experts will discuss the latest refinish coatings technologies, including its ONYX™ HD Low VOC Productive System. The system, which has been tested by numerous collision repair centers, is easy to spray, offers enhanced de-nibbing and dries quickly under common humidity and temperature conditions, leading to reduced dry times. They will also share business tools such as Benchmark Analyzer and Touch Time Calculator that help collision repair centers increase efficiencies and productivity. “Our goal at BASF is to offer the latest and most innovative solutions to help our customers maximize productivity while delivering the best quality results,” said Vitor Margaronis, Marketing Director, BASF Coatings Solutions.  “Whether it is process improvement, extensive training opportunities, cutting-edge color technology, online productivity tools or customer service, we strive to be an expert partner to the collision repair industry.” In addition, for the second year in a row, BASF will sponsor the MSO Symposium on Oct. 16. This popular event provides the latest industry trends to an exclusive group of multiple repair shop owners and includes numerous education and networking opportunities. Refinish offerings from BASF – which include Glasurit®, R-M® and Limco® paint products – are supported by technical training programs, advanced color information systems and business management seminars.
