Our Body Shop has gone Green!

Our Collision Shops are now Both using EnviroBase High Performance Paint Systems!






The use of this new waterborne basecoat for refinishing all our vehicles will significantly reduce the emission of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) into the atmosphere. It will also help us do our part to improve the quality of our air and contribute to an overall healthier work environment. 

Read on to see the other many benefits of this new paint system!


 

What is Waterborne?
- Waterborne technology is a basecoat system that significantly reduces VOC's (Volatile Organic Compounds)
- Waterborne technology replaces the solvents inherently found in traditional basecoats, and replaces it with distilled water.
