3M has taken the top honour in the prestigious Collision Repair and Refinish category of the New Product Showcase Awards at the 2013 SEMA Show in Las Vegas.
The award was made for the 3M Body Protection System, an innovative product system that helps repairers spray low-viscosity textured finishes with fine, medium, coarse and splattered patterns.
The annual Specialty Equipment Market Association Show provides a show case for the latest developments in the refinishing and body repair world with its New Products Showcase Awards always very keenly contested. This year more than 2,000 new products were submitted for consideration with 3M coming out on top in the Collision Repair and Refinish Product category.
The new 3M Body Protection System is reinventing how repair technicians match textured finishes and features the 3M Accuspray HGP Spray Gun with a pressurized inlet and 3M PPS Type H/O Mini Pressure Cup, the 3M Rocker Protector Pouch and 3M Paintable Undercoating Pouch.
The pressurized 3M Accuspray spray gun allows the product to be sprayed at any angle making it easier to reach lower rocker sections and inside wheel wheels. The painter can easily adjust the spray pattern to reduce overspray and masking.
