Solving the Collision Information Puzzle
If you are in the collision repair business, you know how difficult it can be to find information you can trust. Is that the correct place to section? How many welds are necessary? Is there a more efficient detrimming procedure? The questions go on and on.

For years, collision repair professionals have relied on a patchwork of information:

	Advice From Friends at Other Shops
	Calls to Dealers
	Internet Forums
	Paper Manuals
	and Most Commonly... "Best Guesses."
