am thrilled to welcome you, on behalf of the Alliance of Automotive Service Providers of New Jersey (AASP/NJ), to the association’s flagship event, the 41st annual NORTHEAST® Automotive Services Show! With the expansion to the NORTHEAST Pavilion this year, this is not only the largest NORTHEAST show to date, but it also shows how truly incredible our growth has been as a regional automotive trade show. This year’s show is guaranteed to be unlike any other in the past. Whether you come out every year, or this is your first trip to NORTHEAST, the association has worked diligently to provide the most comprehensive experience for all in attendance. As I mentioned, this is the first show with the brand-new NORTHEAST Pavilion. We were able to get even more of your favorite vendors all under one roof, while also adding a gourmet food court to create a weekend in the collision repair industry you do not want to miss. The Pavilion also features the WMABA (Washington Metropolitan Auto Body Association)-produced Collision P.R.E.P. (Professional Repairer Education Program) – an exclusive new top of the line educational series. These classes are hosted by some of the most knowledgeable names in the industry, and range in subject matter to cover relevant, pressing issues that are important to all automotive repair professionals. Throughout the weekend, you can also expect to meet some popular celebrity guests. Courtesy of our Platinum Show Sponsor BASF, we’re excited to once again be bringing back KC Mathieu (KC’s Paint Shop, Fast N’ Loud), as well as Jonathan Goolsby (Goolsby Customs), and new to NORTHEAST, Troy Spackman (Legacy Innovations). You’ll also have the chance to meet Paul Jr. from Paul Jr. Designs (courtesy of ROGO Fasteners). From world-class vendors to the latest in tools, technology and equipment, there is something at NORTHEAST for everyone – and this is just scratching the surface. I hope you spend time over the weekend learning, networking and finding ways to help optimize your success in this industry. Thank you to all of our exhibitors, speakers, supporters and the incredible generosity from all of our 2018 show sponsors. We genuinely appreciate the hard work of everyone who has helped make this event possible, and have helped grow this show over the years. Enjoy NORTHEAST 2018!

LESTER GLENN COLLISION CENTER

USI NORTH AMERICA CUSTOMER TESTIMONIAL

Lester Glenn Collison Center’s 33,000 square-foot facility in Toms River, NJ has been serving collision repair needs since 1956. Affiliated with nine OEM car lines, and producing approximately $5 million worth of business a year, Lester Glenn has seen the incredible benefits of having a USI Italia Spray Booth. “About seven years ago, we reached out to a couple of companies for a spray booth,” explains Collision Center Manager Dan Paganelli. “USI showed up, and out of all the proposals and all the meetings, they showed the most professionalism. They walked us through what we could have, what we could do and why we should do it. We felt very comfortable; the meeting was focused on what the booth was capable of, and how it would fit into what we wanted to do for the future.” Paganelli described the difficulties the painters at his shop were having with waterborne paint drying on cars, and with the help of USI’s team, the new spray booth revolutionized the way they did business. “We were one of the first shops to incorporate this new booth style that had a superior heating capability. We removed all the blowers, and USI showed us how to use this new technology. It amps up the drying temperature, the air movement is great over the vehicle and with increased heat, the drying time is faster. “The service from USI was so helpful we actually became one of the shops in the area that taught people how to not use blowers, which are very cumbersome – they get in the way, and they take more time than the way we were now doing things. One of our paint reps came in and asked us to show them what we were doing and how to do it. We were showing everybody how to use the booth, and they were very impressed.” At Lester Glenn, Paganelli’s painters utilize the spray booth, and their doubleheated prep deck, every day, clocking over 320 hours every week, with the goal to soon be 500 hours. Additionally, the shop is in the process of installing a second spray booth, and Paganelli is excited to see how it continues to improve business. “Something I really love is their new computer system. They can go in there overnight and upload any additional information that we need, or perform any upgrades to the booth. Any troubleshooting, 22

they can do it from New Jersey or Italy – even when we’re closed. [USI’s] service has been above average, and that’s hard to find with an outside contractor. In this industry, with spray booths, that’s very, very difficult to find. They’re really standing behind their product line, which we appreciate.” Since the installation of the first USI Italia spray booth, Paganelli says his employees have really valued the simplicity of the booth, as well as the longevity it has provided to the company over the course of a long day. “Our painters really love the drying capabilities, and just the overall ease of operation. It’s really simple to maintain and great to work with. For the amount we use it, it’s a workhorse – and that’s what you need. You need reliability. You need to know that it’s working from seven in the morning until five at night – and that’s what it does.” In regard to training associated with the booth, Paganelli says USI’s team came out to the shop to go over the different capabilities of the system. Additionally, he’s benefitted from the expertise of USI’s representatives. “The drying of the paint – they gave us a ton of input in that respect, and that has just catapulted us. It has saved us a lot of cycle time in the booths, and that was huge for us. There’s no barometer for how much that has helped us – it’s increased our business one car per day at the very least. “USI’s input was also very instrumental in the layout of the shop, and that was a great advantage to us.” For Paganelli and Lester Glenn, it’s the reliability of the USI Italia spray booths – as well as the USI representatives - that have proven to be the biggest benefits. “It’s comforting to know that someone’s at the other end of the phone. I feel comfortable knowing I have someone I can depend on. We’ve never had a problem with lighting, mechanicals, running the booth. It’s been very reliable. If I need to reach out to them for service needs, I know they’ll help me.” In the future, Paganelli is confident that adding a second USI spray booth will only continue to bolster their business. “The installation of the second booth will allow us to bring on another full-time painter, which I think can increase our paint capacity from 320 to well over 500 hours a week. That alone can increase our total sales for the month by 30 percent. Over a year’s time, we think it can push us well over that $5 million mark – that’s how much of an advantage it’ll be. “USI is so straightforward. There’s no bells and whistles. The booth moves a lot of air, it moves it consistently – there’s no failure, no lag and that’s what you want: Longevity, consistency, and the ability to bake the cars properly to OEM standard.”

THE AMATO AGENCY Thanks to longtime AASP/NJ benefit provider the Amato Agency, a number of Garden State body shops now have a lot more money in their bank accounts. An independent insurance agency with multiple offices in NJ, the Amato Agency specializes in securing affordable insurance for the independent business owner. The company’s special “safety group” programs provide annual dividend checks to participating shops if the group’s total loss ratio is better than anticipated by the insurance companies at the time of premium development. The less claims the group files, the more money the group will make. And when the end of the year rolls around, that money goes right back into the pockets of the body shops. “Our plan is only as good as our members,” explains Amato Agency President Joe Amato, Sr. “As our pool of premiums increases and our losses continue to stay low, we have a much bigger pot from which to pool our dividends.” Recently, The Amato Agency’s programs provided 10 percent dividends on the garage policies (property and liability insurance) and eight percent on workers’ compensation policies. The Amato Agency’s programs also offer up-front discounts as well as dividends for association members. A new addition to the workers’ compensation dividend program is a “Pay as You Go” option, which provides ease of payments and painless audits. In addition to offering a popular workers’ compensation program and garage policy program, the Amato Agency also works hard to help shops navigate through the often-confusing world of health care. As Amato says, “We represent all the major health insurance carriers in the state of New Jersey. We can sit with our clients and evaluate a good, solid health insurance program that can keep the cost down and still provide quality benefits for the insured.” The Amato Agency also offers a program for personal automotive and homeowners insurance which provides discounts for owners and employees of AASP/NJ member businesses. Employees can request a rate quote on auto insurance, as well as gain information on the Amato Agency’s many services by contacting the agency at (800) 763-6574 or by going to amatoagency.com. Visit the Amato Agency at NORTHEAST Booth 002. ACCUDRAFT Accudraft has been a pioneer in spray booth and finishing technology for over 30 years.

AUTO BODY DISTRIBUTING CO. From sandpaper and body filler to masking tape and paint, Auto Body Distributing Co. provides auto body shops with the basics at a lower price than most competitors. Anything you need to run your shop on a daily basis can be found through Auto Body Distributing Co. Shop owners also get the best price on hard parts, since ABD provides members with a list of parts suppliers that have agreed to discount their product. We don’t care if you are a one-man shop or a 30-man shop; you’ll get the same great price. ABD’s 48-year history began in 1970, when nine body shop owners joined forces to drum up membership in their local association. Their determination, perseverance and cutting-edge ideas of encouraging participation by becoming cooperative eventually led to an overwhelming response. Today, the ABD has become a force in the industry, and

provides stockholders with shop supplies at huge savings in addition to the best hard parts discounts. We thank you for your support! How is ABD able to provide a service like this to its members? Because ABD buys so many supplies, we get a large discount. But instead of keeping the profit and selling the supplies at list price, only minimal markups are applied. Our prices are still cheaper than other supply distributors that sell their products at list price. To learn more about ABD, please call (973) 3737100, or visit us online at autobodydistributing.com.

BMW OF SPRINGFIELD Family-owned and operated since 1965, Springfield, NJ-based BMW of Springfield (formerly known as JMK BMW) is the type of facility known to countless repairers throughout the Northern and Central New Jersey regions as standing head and shoulders above the rest. An expert staff, unwavering commitment to service and a continuing philosophy of valuing the customer above all else has helped make BMW of Springfield the largest business-tobusiness marketer of BMW replacement parts in New Jersey, and the second largest in BMW’s Eastern region. “We continue to grow every year in sales volume thanks in part to our philosophy, which differs from the typical wholesale parts operation,” explains Parts Director Pedro Santos (who is a company mainstay himself). “We employ what’s referred to as ‘businessto-business’ marketing, in addition to providing an ever-expanding range of products and parts. We focus on getting to know each customer, maintaining regular communication with each business we work with, hosting various meetings and events geared towards them and providing technical support.” BMW of Springfield keeps their clientele happy through nearly constant deliveries, many made sameday if possible, with eight delivery trucks that deliver throughout the state on four scheduled routes. In addition, the dealer employs one delivery-on-demand truck, where customers inside BMW of Springfield’s local delivery area can get their orders shipped the same day. For non-local customers, they offer nextday UPS service, and can be reached by fax, phone, email or Nextel phone messaging. The wholesale parts department, comprised of five advisors under the direction of Santos, coordinates orders from all over New Jersey, using products and parts in their expansive wholesale parts housing area. Santos notes, “Our employees’ experience and our company philosophy give us a huge advantage, which we translate into constantly improving ourselves for the benefit of the customer.” BMW of Springfield is also a longtime supporter of the industry through its work with both AASP/NJ and the NORTHEAST show.

COLLISION EQUIPMENT COMPANY One of the region’s fastest-growing new providers of dependable collision repair equipment, the Collision Equipment Company has quickly established a strong reputation in the AASP/NJ community for quality products and active support of the association’s work on behalf of repairers. Founded just over four years ago, the Pennsylvania company has built a sizable customer base from New York down to Delaware. Since its formation, the Collision Equipment Company has been an enthusiastic participant in AASP/NJ’s NORTHEAST Automotive Services Show. Business Development Manager Keith Egan and his crew will be featuring impressive displays from manufacturers including Betag Innovation (highquality pulling equipment from Sweden), GYS (a French provider of resistance welders and selfpiercing riveters) and Prima (MIG welders) at NORTHEAST 2018. Egan is excited to once again be involved in the Northeast industry’s most popular event. “The NORTHEAST Automotive Services Show allows us to expand our footprint and our offerings in the markets we do business in,” he says. “I think there’s more offered at NORTHEAST than you get at a national show or something like that because you’re dealing with people who do business in the same market. When repairers in South Jersey or Pennsylvania or even New York come to that show, chances are they’re discussing an equipment purchase or an investment into the future with the people they’re going to do business with. NORTHEAST gives you the ability to build a

relationship with an individual or an organization, and continue that relationship after the show.” As the Collision Equipment Company continues to expand its customer relationships and product offerings, Egan maintains a strong commitment to following the trends that are impacting the overall automotive repair field. A regular participant in the Collision Industry Conference (CIC) and the National Auto Body Council (NABC), he considers education and consolidation to be the biggest issues shaping today’s industry. “There’s a paradigm shift going on in our industry where repairers need to make an investment in equipment because vehicles have changed and OEM certification has become prevalent in the marketplace,” he offers. “I-CAR training is something that shops need, but because of consolidation, we’re seeing that the consolidators don’t want to send their technicians out to facilities and expose them to the ability for somebody else to hire them at those training classes. So they’re looking for a higher level of service for training inside of their facilities, which is all tied to equipment training, certification and the reinvestment on behalf of the repairers to be able to work on cars going forward. “We see consolidation playing a huge part in the industry,” he adds. “Collision repairers who are not part of that movement and are not consolidators or MSOs can survive the transition, but they’re going to have to be able to re-invest in the market. Nationally, collision repairers are going to have to upgrade their equipment and increase the level of training provided to their technicians. We see CE Training as an opportunity going forward for technicians.” No matter where these developments ultimately take the national and regional auto body industries, those whose livelihoods depend on the equipment they use will always have a friend in the Collision Equipment Company.

EQUIPMENT GATEWAY Since 2010, through a network of equipment suppliers all over the world, Equipment Gateway searches for products that will make a difference to the way you operate your business and the way vehicles are repaired. With a warehouse in Upstate NY, our products are supported through a network of distributors and direct staff who provide sales, service, inventory of spare parts and training across the USA. Equipment Gateway is the importer of Miracle System, the famous system of panel repair from Japan that has been sold in every country around the world for the last 35 years. Miracle System challenges the view of what can and can’t be repaired, either for practical or financial reasons. The system consists of a separate welder for steel panels and Aluminum panels. The Aluminum welder uses lift arch technology with argon shield allowing you to repair more than the dings and dents of conventional systems. The pulling tools are made from a proprietary alloy of Titanium and Aluminum, so are both strong and light. These can be used with both welders. The easily removable and cleanable rubber pads eliminate contamination between steel and aluminum. There are four kits available, ranging from entry level to fully loaded allowing us to meet all needs and budgets. The Aluminum kit can be added to any of these packages. Airopower is a 5.25-ton pneumatic, push pull ram available with four accessory sets. When combined with an accessory kit, many repairs to rockers, rear body panels and quarter panels that would normally require tie downs or a frame machine can now be done anywhere in the shop. For product information please visit equipment gateway.com and our Facebook page/Miracle System.usa or the TheEquipmentGateway YouTube channel. We can be reached by phone at (866) 588-7599 or sales@equipmentgateway.com. Visit us at NORTHEAST Booth 313. ESTIFY Like so many other revolutionary companies, Estify was formed by entrepreneurs driven to challenge the status quo by putting inefficiencies under the 48

spotlight of innovation. Through spending countless hours sitting side-by-side with shops and direct coaching from industry thought leaders Estify found its entry into tackling what was at the top of their “needs” list for waste in the collision industry: Rekeying. The dreaded act of wasting the better part of an hour copying estimates from paper into an estimating system or even worse translating the information across one estimating platform to another. This idea launched not only a company but a way of thinking that has attracted some of the industry’s own leading “challengers” along with a large majority of those from outside our space to come here to see what we can solve that others have deemed “impossible.” At the core of Estify is the desire to remain agnostic and focused on the mission of faster, safer and more efficient vehicle repair. We do this by staying focused on not making ripples, but waves, towards meeting the needs of an industry rocked by the autonomous automotive revolution. Digitization and new workflows have revolutionized other industries, and automotive collision will be no exception. To learn more about Estify, please visit estify.com or call (888) 708-4950.

FLEMINGTON AUDI/VOLKSWAGEN/PORSCHE Under the guidance of Parts Manager Rich Muir, the Flemington Audi/Volkswagen/Porsche wholesale operation provides products from its $950,000 inventory to a 60-mile radius via 30 delivery trucks. Muir is joined in the department by seasoned parts veterans Brian Temples, Paul Hunt, Fred Laschi, Brian McEvoy and Tim Arencibia. With the parts team working to ensure that shops receive quality parts with every order, Flemington Audi/Volkswagen/Porsche maintains strong customer outreach thanks to Wholesale Parts Representatives Christine Rizzo-Donaruma, Rob Cuccia, David Perez (who recently joined the operation following a successful run at Downs Ford) and Pete Rifkin. Together, these industry pros create one of the strongest wholesale teams on the east coast. The dealership’s momentum is maintained by the active support of owners Steve Kalafer and Byron Brisby. While some competitors are struggling to merely maintain their current sales, Flemington Audi/Volkswagen/Porsche is in a state of constant growth. Customer retention at the dealership is also helped along by a popular loyalty program that offers annual rebates to shops that buy parts from a certain number of Flemington dealers, while a special shop referral system awards auto body facilities that refer other businesses to Muir’s operation. Flemington Audi/Volkswagen/Porsche has also strengthened its commitment to OEM parts by using CollisionLink/RepairLink for all three car lines. This presents shops with an alternative to having to use aftermarket or salvage parts in the repair process. Additionally, Volkswagen offers a strong price matching program, while Muir and his crew regularly go above and beyond in making sure their customers for the other automakers don’t have to settle for anything less than the best job possible.

FRED BEANS PARTS Imagine being able to order parts for various manufacturers all in one sitting, with the help of a trained expert. Then imagine not having to go pick up these parts because they get delivered straight to you in a single truck. Imagine the warehouse this truck came from is big enough to house over $20 million in parts at one time. Sound too good to be true? It’s not. It’s Fred Beans Parts in Doylestown, PA. The man who started it all, Fred Bean, began as a garage owner in the 1950s, and years later, purchased his first dealership, Fred Beans Ford of Doylestown. He has since grown to 14 dealerships carrying 19 brands, and in January of 2001, a downtown warehouse was transformed into a 200,000 squarefoot parts distribution center with a state-of-the-art sales center. Fred Beans specializes in OE manufacturers Ford, GM, Chrysler, Toyota, Nissan, Isuzu, Hyundai, Kia, VW, Subaru, Honda, Lexus, Mazda, Mercedes, Saab and Suzuki. Their inventory is constantly moving thanks to 95 trucks leaving and entering the building for deliveries all day. Fred Beans caters to much of the tristate area, with a customer base that is broadening greatly since there are not many businesses around quite like it. Fred Beans has saved many shop owners time and frustration over the years, and when the desire to help customers expands, so does the parts operation. Recently, Beans has expanded to two additional warehouses in Doylestown, adding 37,000 square feet to accommodate the increase in parts volume. Visit Fred Beans at fbparts.com or call toll-free at (877) 942-3267 and find out why they do parts right! The Fred Beans parts staff looks forward to seeing you at NORTHEAST Booth 329.

LKQ has operations in North America, Europe and Taiwan. LKQ offers its customers a broad range of replacement systems, components, equipment and parts to repair and accessorize automobiles, trucks and recreational and performance vehicles. LKQ operates in more than 570 facilities, offering its customers a broad range of replacement systems, components and parts to repair automobiles and light- and heavy-duty trucks. To enhance the delivery services and better assist customers in the New Jersey and New York markets, LKQ’s recycling facilities are networking with the aftermarket Keystone facilities in Kearny and Lakewood, NJ and in Brooklyn, the Bronx, Newburgh and Syosset, NY. LKQ’s online delivery system provides its service representatives with the ability to view parts from the company’s widest inventory selection, allowing them to source parts as far south as Maryland, as far north as Maine and as far west as Ohio for delivery to customers, usually the next day. LKQ’s network across North America enables the company to serve collision and mechanical repair shops better than anyone else in the industry. With numerous cross-dock facilities in nine trading regions, the company can fulfill orders with aboveindustry delivery rates. By offering alternative, aftermarket, OE recycled, remanufactured and reconditioned parts, LKQ provides their customers with an extensive selection of high quality replacements parts for just about any vehicle. LKQ acquires salvage vehicles, primarily at auctions, dismantles them, and recycles the OEM parts for resale on late-model automobiles involved in collisions or in need of replacement mechanical parts, such as engines or transmissions. The most common recycled products include vehicle front or rear end assemblies, doors, trunk lids, engines and transmissions.

LKQ also offers higher-demand aftermarket products, such as head and tail lamps, grilles, hoods, mirrors, bumper covers and fenders. Platinum Plus is Keystone’s own brand of collision repair products and is the industry’s only premium brand of collision parts. Value Line is a quality part that often comes from the same manufacturer at a more competitive price, since there is no expense for the third-party evaluation. Additionally, third-party aftermarket parts certifier CAPA oversees the testing and inspection of nearly 10,000 LKQ aftermarket parts. CAPA certified parts meet standards for fit, component materials and corrosion resistance. The CAPA quality seal is placed only on products meeting CAPA’s strict quality requirements.

MAXON HYUNDAI MAZDA BUICK GMC For New Jersey parts industry mainstay Rick Weber, building personal, one-on-one relationships with customers is as important today as it was when he first started in the trade back in the early ’80s. Known to Garden State repairers as the longtime parts director at Maxon Hyundai/Mazda (and now BuickGMC!) in Union, Weber and the Maxon Parts Department see customers as more than just numbers on an order. Not surprisingly, this increasingly unique business philosophy has paid off. Currently serving most of New Jersey and parts of New York, Pennsylvania and Staten Island, the Maxon Wholesale Parts Division has built such a strong customer base that they had to move into a new warehouse to accommodate increasing sales. Launched in May 2014, the facility boasts 8,000 square feet and $1.5 million in OEM collision and mechanical parts. Thanks to the diligence of Weber’s crew, Maxon was able to make the major transition into the warehouse without a moment’s interruption in their regular parts services. The professionals who comprise the current Maxon parts team include an assistant warehouse manager known simply as “Mason,” who helps Weber run the general day-to-day operations of the new facility. Parts Manager JP Pascual oversees the daily service parts operation, while Ken Creasy and Hector Carrasquillo, offer personalized service on the wholesale phones. Shops can also expect to see new salesman Jim Brogan visiting their facilities! Administrative Assistant Pat Brady handles the department’s paperwork, while seven drivers and four warehouse people complete the team. Recently, the Maxon family of dealerships has grown, expanding to include Buick and GMC! The unmatched service and diverse inventory that Maxon customers have grown accustomed to has set the group apart as the preferred dealer in Union. With his department always in a state of growth, Weber credits Dealer Principal Michael Ciasulli for making the parts operation an ongoing success. “He gives me the tools I need to do the business; he saw this [expansion] as a good move,” Weber says. Like many popular parts providers, Maxon Hyundai/Mazda is a regular exhibitor at the annual NORTHEAST Automotive Services Show. In Weber’s

mind, spending the weekend at NORTHEAST allows him extraordinary access to the clients who make it all possible. “Maybe I see one or two customers on a given day, but I can’t see a lot of those people at one time,” Weber explains. “NORTHEAST gives us the opportunity to see literally thousands of current and potential customers.” Maxon is also excited to help shops obtain OEM parts instead of aftermarket reman salvage parts through Hyundai’s addition of CollisionLink to the manufacturer’s existing Go Genuine collision conquest program. The shops already using CollisionLink can now join Hyundai’s program in conjunction with OEConnection and OPSTRAX, as mediums to receive quality parts at unbeatable prices! Maxon also offers GM and Mazda price matching

through CollisionLink, and is involved with PartsTrader and CollisionLink with all brands. The Maxon parts team is looking forward to meeting YOU at NORTHEAST Booth 301, and encourages you to contact them for more information on what Maxon’s top-notch service will mean for your business. To learn more about Maxon, please call toll-free at (800) 964-7281 or visit www.yesmaxon.com.

POLYCRACKER Polycracker is located in Boonton, NJ. For more than 25 years, the company has been a provider of specialty chemicals for the removal of wax, grease, silicones and Armor-All from surfaces to prepare them for fisheye-free coatings and painting. Polycracker was the first to introduce a water-based chemical in this industry and is still the number one choice. Most fisheye problems are caused by polysilicone, the ingredient in all of today’s most durable paint protection systems and waxes. Successful refinishing of treated vehicles requires removal of all traces of these chemicals – Polycracker was designed to do just that. Plus, Polycracker completely removes oil, grease, lubricants, fingerprints and dirt. Fisheye eliminators are the not the answer. Adding fisheye eliminator to all paint jobs – “just in case” – can cause major problems down the road, because fisheye eliminators contain some of the same ingredients as the waxes. Adding fisheye eliminators to paint can make the paint compatible with the wax, but using it can create adhesion problems, or wax residue accumulation. Clearcoats are even worse. Using eliminator in single stage top coats is a remedy that can be pulled off, but using the chemicals in primers or the basecoats of two- or three-stage finishes can be hazardous. Using eliminator may help you get the base on, but when you apply the clear, you could get

thousands of fisheyes. When that happens, your only chance of saving the job is by adding large doses of eliminator to the clearcoat. This can mean countless small fisheyes that you will later attempt to color, sand and buff out. By doing so, you’re risking slippage (adhesion problems) down the road. The simple solution is to eliminate fisheye at its source. Use POLYCRACKER before sanding and before painting to ELIMINATE fisheye for good! Please contact us at polycracker@netscape.com.

SPANESI AMERICAS Founded in 1989 by Orazio Spanesi, Spanesi has become synonymous with constant growth and improvement. Raised with an innate vocation for cars and mechanics, Orazio Spanesi’s dream started when he opened a body shop in a small town in the province of Padova, Italy in 1969 after beginning his career as a panel beater in 1958. Driven by his desire to learn everything there was to know about the industry, he began travelling, first around Italy, then around the world. Spanesi came to realize the inadequacy of the repair systems in use at the time, which were too slow and too complicated, and founded his own company to fill the void in the repair industry. Thanks to a series of astute technical insights, in just a few years, Orazio Spanesi succeeded in developing a range of products that included the Spanesi universal jig and the totem lift that revolutionized the market and brought the brand success. Today, Spanesi is a leading international producer of automotive repair equipment and continues to manufacture the most effective solutions to enable body shop technicians to perform repairs to a high standard of excellence. Spanesi’s product lines include straightening benches, mini-benches, multi-benches, touch electronic measuring systems, vacuum systems, welding machines, infrared lamps, lifts, painting tools, spray booth equipment and manual, pneumatic, electric and hydraulic tools.

continued from page 76 Spanesi’s dedication to superior products starts with research and development to continually improve the quality and technology needed for vehicle repair. Being on the customer’s side is not just a slogan for Spanesi, but a fact of daily life, demonstrated by an on-site body shop in operation alongside its production plant. Here, each new prototype is tested with modifications that improve efficiency, optimize times and simplify procedures. This is the site of the real “field testing” that guarantees the exceptional Spanesi performance and continuous innovation. Production quality can be checked at any time thanks to a widespread organization and the constant contact Spanesi maintains with its dealers around the world. Spanesi’s renowned customer care and ongoing training enables technicians to guarantee their own customers faster and more efficient service, while making Spanesi the landmark brand in the sector. In 2005, Spanesi added a second factory that mirrors the Padova factory, and is located in China to serve the Asian market. The recent opening of Spanesi Americas will focus directly on North and South American marketing and distribution to meet the needs of its current and future customers. Spanesi has poised itself to be able to support the global market.

Spanesi Americas’ mission is to bring new products and technologies to body shops in the Americas to enable technicians to perform repairs to a high standard of excellence. There are no secrets behind Spanesi’s success, just one rule behind every choice: Be a technician, think like a technician and gear your products to technicians.

WCC’s wheel production facility offers insurance-quality wheel refinishing, which carries our limited lifetime warranty, as well as wheel polishing, painting and chroming. WCC stocks thousands of refinished OEM alloy wheels available for sale or exchange. Aftermarket or out-of-stock factory wheels can often be repaired or located. WCC uses proprietary, industry-leading machinery for straightening aluminum wheels. Our Patented Repair Process assures 100 percent wheel integrity. Accidents,

potholes, curbs or tire machines can cause damage resulting in a wheel being discarded. Scratched, bent, gouged or cracked, WCC can repair it properly and safely, backed by 2.5 years of metallurgy testing by Lehigh University Material Research. WCC’s expert technicians can straighten or weld damaged areas back to original condition in less time than it normally takes to buy a new wheel. We offer 100 percent inspections before shipping, and check radial and lateral runout and balance to ensure the wheel is perfectly straight so the car rides smoothly. WCC offers daily pickup and delivery service in Southeastern PA & Northern NJ, as well as daily UPS around the United States. We welcome your alloy wheel business, so call us at (800) 292-RIMS (7467), and visit us at NORTHEAST Booth 305.
