Incorporating REVO Accelerated Curing Systems from GFS into their operations in 2021 has enabled Budget Truck & Auto to increase quality and reduce time in the repair process, resulting in a big boost on their bottom line. Suddenly, yesterday’s production-crippling setbacks have become today’s opportunities for growth.
Repairing high-end vehicles requires nothing less than the highest-quality finishes, and Robert Gallegos wanted the best equipment he could find for the body shop he co-owns with his brother, Andrew. GFS met their needs in 2018, with three Ultra Paint Booths that are integrated with REVO Accelerated Curing Systems — part of a Side-Load Finishing System to boost productivity and maximize efficiency.
Jetstream Aviation’s paint shop in Kinston, North Carolina, became operational in 2021, with a GFS Aircraft Paint Booth that measures 95 feet wide, 30 feet high and 104 feet deep. An airflow rate of 210,000 CFM, coupled with an air-cooled chiller and heated Air Make-Up Units (AMUs), give Jetstream the ability to complete basic repairs to the most complex ones, in the least amount of time possible.
With a 40-year-old paint booth, J&M Collision Center was long overdue for an upgrade. Jim Bilz needed a new booth that would prevent bottlenecks and alleviate his body shop’s big backlog. His problems were solved in 2021 with the addition of an Ultra XD Paint Booth from GFS.
When it comes to technology, Chuck Kreuzer likes being ahead of his competition. Upgrading to an Ultra XR Paint Booth integrated with REVO Speed from GFS, along with four REVO Spot units, has given Chuck’s Collision Shop fewer production bottlenecks, improved efficiency and increased energy savings.
Rather than invest in a second paint booth to reduce his backlog of vehicles waiting to be painted, Jordan Yule opted to add an Air Make-Up Unit (AMU) to heat his Perfomer ES Paint Booth from GFS. The addition of an AMU has opened the door to new profit opportunities for JY Collision Center in Fall Creek, Wisconsin.
