Automotive Refinish
“We used to do two booth cycles a day. In this new setup, sitting on our hands, we’ll paint four cars a day. I fully expect that our capacity — in an instant — will be doubled. And I expect the system can do much more than that. With the correct person pulling the trigger, we should paint six cars a day.”
Thank you for the continued support of your product and our business. We appreciate that our case was not left until fully dealt with.
“My equipment has paid for itself 100 times over. Being as large of a company as GFS is, once you’re working with them, it seems like they’re a much smaller company in the sense that they’re able to do stuff very quickly, very much to the point and very personalized to our needs.”
“It’s not so much about the paint booth. It’s the service you get after the booth purchase and the responsiveness and quality of the product. That’s why we chose GFS.”
“We really clean the cars in our prep work, but we couldn’t do it without the paint booth. With our previous booth, there would always be at least one speck of dirt in the paint job that would ruin the whole finish. I’m still in awe of how consistent the airflow is in the booth and how clean the cars come out of it.”
Kye Yeung’s customers love their cars — and they drive fancy ones. When their car needs a repair, they want it done right, and they want it back fast. At European Motor Car Works, having dependable, high-performance equipment is a necessity. In Yeung’s latest shop expansion, GFS and Maximum Equipment & Technical Services delivered what he needed to get customers back on the road and keep OEMs happy.
Needing to replace an aging paint booth at one of his body shops, Jesse Jacobson sought a booth manufacturer that could provide reliable service and support in a timely manner. He found peace of mind with GFS and local distributor Platinum Equipment, and the new Ultra XL Paint Booth at Heppner’s Rivercity Collision Centre has increased throughput, improved efficiency and created new business opportunities.
For Dan Tronrud, a bigger footprint means a bigger business and bigger expectations from insurance companies. So when Osceola Auto Body doubled their space in 2022, with an 11,820-square-foot expansion, Tronrud knew GFS equipment could help his shop deliver 1,100-plus repair orders and more than $4 million in sales this year.
