"We sell a lot of unique products to body shops," says RBL's Dennis Dirr, "but the positive feedback we've gotten on the Double Shot has been incredible! It's easy to forget how simple projects like washing a vehicle take up so much time, and how the right equipment can really speed up these tasks."

Collision wrap keeps out water, UV rays

Another popular RBL product is Col-lision Wrap, a durable 3-mil plastic protective film that adheres easily to the exterior of a vehicle to protect it from rain, dust and UV damage, yet is easily removed with no left-behind residue. "When you've got broken windows and windshields or a hard hit where the door won't close, sticking that car in the yard covered with plastic trash bags held in place by duct tape is really dumb," says Dirr. "First, the water and dust get in through openings, then the plastic tears and finally you have to remove all the residue from the tape adhesive. Our wrap is a much more effective solution, both cost-wise and for vehicle protection."

RBL, headquartered in Detroit, makes a line of innovative products including paint masking systems, the protective film products, pneumatic quick disconnects, sealants and sound dampeners. The products are stocked by distributors across the country. There's a great web site that describes each product, www.rblproducts.com, or you can call them at (800) 584-8111.
