Standox has introduced a new service, Standopedia an online resource with a wealth of tips and advice on car paint repairs for professional refinishers.

Standopedia is aimed at both young and experienced professional refinishers. Visitors to the site will find technical information as well as valuable expertise on specialist topics related to the refinish process, such as the repair of special colours or the application of new products. The online guide will also be regularly expanded and updated.

"Standopedia is the embodiment of the Standox principle of helping bodyshops achieve impeccable repair results," says Anthony Cashel, Marketing Manager for Axalta Coating Systems in the UK and Ireland. "In order to produce professional refinish results, refinishers not only need innovative products and technical equipment, but also the necessary expertise."

Sharing knowledge and expertise has a long tradition at Standox. For almost 20 years, the global refinish brand has provided refinishers with easy to understand, clearly presented practical tips and extensive expertise in refinishing in the form of its Standothek guides which cover topics such as refinishing plastics, identifying and eliminating paint defects, health and safety in the bodyshop and much more.

"Standopedia is a great, contemporary addition to the support we provide to our refinishers," says Cashel. The online guide can be found under the Service & Training menu on the Standox homepage or at www.standox.co.uk/standopedia. Standox Standothek guides, which are free, can be ordered from the brand’s webshop at www.standoshop.co.uk.
