Services and Support
SHOP ASSESSMENTS
Our Tech Team can conduct assessments of vital areas of shop production, from spray booth performance to compressors, air filtration, piping, airline contamination, and restrictions. This comprehensive analysis can help management eliminate costly production downtime
TROUBLESHOOTING
Even with industry-leading PPG products, issues arise on occasion. One of our six certified tech team members is usually just a phone call away to help troubleshoot frustrating production issues, whether they be from improper production selection, equipment issues or application issues. On-site troubleshooting is also available as needed.
NEW PRODUCTS/TECHNOLOGIES
Our tech team loves testing new products! Let us help you select the latest and greatest technologies, from clearcoats to sandpaper; we test most new products in our two training facilities before promoting them to the customer!
SOP’S
Our tech team can help you develop SOP’s which encourage efficient material usage, helping you maintain consistent P&M profitability.
Our best-in-class service, support, and training go beyond the paint shop. Using the Lean for Collision principles of PPG’s™ business solutions group, PPG™ MVP, we can help target areas of your business for improvement, and develop customized training plans to help achieve your goals. Gipe Auto Color, unlike many paint distributors, can provide this training in-house, giving you the responsiveness you need. We are proud of our value-added support offering, and the unique position it gives us in the marketplace.
REPAIR PLANNING/BLUEPRINTING
Helping you capture everything you can on your estimates before the vehicle is sent into production. Conducting a meticulous disassembly of the vehicle to discover any hidden damage, eliminating costly downtime waiting on supplements, parts, and insurance approvals.
PAINT SHOP THROUGHPUT
Utilizing a unique, team-based approach to maximize spray booth cycles. Traditionally a bottleneck in many shops, let us help you make your spray booth a highly productive asset!
TIME STUDIES/VALUE STREAM MAPPING
We can help you understand your shop’s performance, by the department, from the time it enters the shop until the time it leaves, a “keys to keys” approach.
INVENTORY MANAGEMENT
Collaborating with your team, we can implement a standardized materials listing, optimize stock levels, and replenish inventory according to your needs.
