With its latest addition of Permasolid® HS Express Surfacer 5250, the company has once again delivered on its promise to provide customised solutions to bodyshops. And to prove this point, Spies Hecker recently conducted an investigation to establish whether the surfacer met the bodyshops demand for products that increase productivity and efficiency with positive results that confirm the hypothesis. Several key role players were invited to analyse the success of Spies Hecker’s Permasolid® HS Express Surfacer 5250. One such participant Mike Bramley, technician at Intercity Paint & Panel, commended the Spies Hecker team for another job well-done in the manufacturing of the superior paint. “The product is fantastic and productivity has effortlessly increased since utilising this primer. I strongly believe that there is no surfacer on the market that can outshine this superb product,” applauded Bramley.According to Barry de Lange, distributor for Auto Industrial in Pietermaritzburg, the exceptional drying capabilities of Permasolid® HS Express Surfacer 5250 have helped accelerate the refinishing process in the generally humid conditions prevalent in the coastal regions. “Spies Hecker has designed a product ideal to meet the requirements of the bodyshops, - a product that is simple to work with,” added de Lange.“We are excited about the overwhelmingly positive response to our newest offering. Sales are definitely reflecting the favourable reception of Permasolid® HS Express Surfacer 5250 by our refinishing customers. With the comprehensive Spies Hecker range, bodyshop owners can now select product systems that will simplify yet enhance the operation of their businesses,” adds Wilhelm Jansen, National Sales & Marketing Manager for Freeworld Automotive Coatings.moresurfacer twoIt has been Spies Hecker’s long-standing philosophy for 125-years to offer exceptional products that will benefit its customers enormously. To maintain this service standard Spies Hecker has made scrutinising its performance in the industry a priority and the new HS Express Surfacer 5250 is proof that Spies Hecker doesn’t pay lip service but puts its money where its mouth is.For more information on Spies Hecker please visit www.spieshecker.co.zaends Word count: 356Drafted and distributed by SIMONSAYS communications on behalf of Spies Hecker:Fundiswa MbuqeMelanie Stevens083 406 4627083 303 9667(011) 465 9815(011) 465 9815fundiswa@simonsayscom.co.zamel@simonsayscom.co.za
