Some Tools of the Trade . . .

Front of Carlisle Auto Body buildingWe continue to invest in best-of-breed technologies that help us to provide superior quality and service to our clients. When we recently constructed our new facility, we wanted to insure that we not only could efficiently provide state-of-the art vehicle repair and customer service, but that we would also be a good neighbor with environmentally sound practices.

Front Office - managing the information

We always know what stage your vehicle is in and Dean Luther working on customer recordsits expected completion date. This information system also allows us to work effectively with your insurance company when previously undiscovered damage is exposed during your vehicle's repair.

Straightening Things Out

Damage to a vehicle's frame is all too common after a collision. As we mentioned in the section on hidden damage, precisely correcting Frame machine - Chief Automotiveframe damage is vital to the driving characteristics and driving safety of your vehicle. We use the some of the best and most precise equipment available from Chief™ Automotive Systems. This is a 3-dimensional measuring and straightening system. When used with our computerized measurements system, this equipment allows us to correctly repair damage to vehicles ranging in size from small unibodies to medium-duty trucks.

Great Finish - Good Neighbors

Sparbake paint booth & curing ovenWe discussed our color matching technologies in a previous section. Our ability to apply a "factory quality" finish to your vehicle also uses advanced technology that is environmentally friendly to both our employees and our neighbors.

Our Spraybake Paint Booth is environmentally friendly due to its unique, EPASpraybake filtration system certified water-wash system that scrubs paint and solvent laden air clean and neutralizes isocyanates. Unlike many other systems, the water-wash filtration system is located outside the booth, so the booth's interior stays dry. This allows the booth to be kept totally free of moisture that can adversely affect the finish.

 

Controlling the AirSpraybake down daft system

A downdraft system keeps a constant top-to-bottom air flow around the vehicle, reducing over spray and preventing particle "drift" during the entire painting cycle.

Bake Until Done . . .

Spraybake's unique indirect heat exchanger can bring the baking temperature to an excess of 200 degrees Fahrenheit within just a few minutes.
