Body Repair Systems
Body Repair Systems |
Using conventional methods, the process of repairing various types of damage to the outer skin of the body, from small parking dents to major exterior damage, is very laborious and thus cost-intensive.
There are methods offered by various manufacturers by which body repair can be accomplished less expensively.
These methods involve pins which are attached to the outer skin using spot welding. The pins are then used to pull out the dent.
The workshop is then in a position to give less expensive repair estimates, which can mean greater customer loyalty and satisfaction.
The time and cost advantages also make it possible to repair older vehicles cost-effectively.
The basic equipment can also be expanded as needed.
