Revolutionary: The X-nozzles are taking atomization to a whole new level.
Noticeably quieter: Whispering nozzle™ due to optimized air flow geometry, reduced noise level in the relevant sound frequency ranges.
Individual: Matches each application requirement, such as specific characteristics of the paint system, climatic conditions and application method (application speed/application control).
Precise: Optimized material distribution for enhanced spraying uniformity and atomization with both spray fan shapes.
Low maintenance: No air distribution insert required, thus also ensuring a much easier and faster cleaning process.
Consistent: Constant fan size across the entire nozzle spectrum (within the range of each respective atomization technology) with linear increases of the material flow rate.
Efficient: The optimized atomization concept enables to realize considerable material savings using the same application method as before.

The StaticZap (Part # DF-EZAP) from Dent Fix Equipment is an anti-static device that keeps the surface clean during the paint process to avoid unnecessary reworking and buffing, saving both time and money.
Static attracts dust and unwanted particles, making it very difficult to keep surfaces clean and causing blemishes in the paint’s finish and other work surfaces. It’s absolutely essential to eliminate static from the environment—at every stage of painting—in order to avoid costly reworking.
The StaticZap incorporates the efficiency and power of an air amplifier with the proven technology of corona ionization to produce a highly effective anti-static blow-off gun. Perform the anti-static blow off before starting and at every stage in the painting process to eliminate fisheyes and produce a finish that looks like glass.
The two-minute anti-static process will help reduce the time needed for wet sanding and buffing which saves time on prep work and also cuts down on labor and materials.
The Kit includes a lightweight, durable gun, rechargeable lithium ion battery, two emitter pins, and safety keys.

ASTRA-Robaina introduces their new scissor lift / car dolly system to North America. This innovative mobile and compact scissor lift is a low profile system that allows most vehicles to drive over, the lift arms swing out and lift pads slide on. Next step, connect the foot pump to your shop air hose and begin lifting. As soon as the tires of the vehicle are no longer touching you can then connect the caster dolly wheels to use as a full body car dolly or lift to the desired work height. Great for body shops in technician stalls or for estimating, general automotive repair, tire / brake shops, detail departments, classic restoration shops, home garages and more. Easy to use, no electrical connections needed. Dual opposing ram safety system. A great way to get the vehicle mobile or lifted to comfortable work heights.

Lexus Structural Blue, paint code 8Y0 is a standard basecoat/clearcoat system. This amazing color looks like it might be difficult to repair, but actually, it's very simple. Follow this recommended procedure from PPG to perform a small spot repair on this color. Structural Blue was developed by Lexus and VIAVI Solutions Inc. It’s based on the coloration of the vibrant morpho butterfly, a species found in Central and South America. The butterfly appears blue in color but does not actually have blue scales in its wing surfaces. The blue color — which varies depending on the ambient light — is achieved through light interference. PPG has introduced a training video to assist paint technicians with refinishing Lexus automobiles sporting the OEM’s Structural Blue finish. The video has been produced to dispel the notion that complex colors require a complex refinish process. In fact, it's not difficult at all.
