Standox has announced dates for its 2014 training courses and ATA assessments.

Standox training courses cover a wide range of skills and practices, enabling refinishers to do everything from brush up on the basics, to learn specialist techniques, such as three stage colour repairs. There is also a strong emphasis on colour match accuracy with dedicated colouristic and spectrophotometer courses.

Jodie Henly, Standox UK Brand Specialist, says, “Our training courses, which start in March will be very popular if previous years are any indication. We deliberately keep class numbers low to offer the best possible, most professional training experience.  I would advise refinishers who are interested to book their places as soon as they can to avoid disappointment.”
