PPG MagicMix software provides further benefits for body shops and repair centers by displaying the most effective products and combinations of hardener and thinner/reducer for current environmental conditions and type of repair.
PPG has announced the introduction of PPG MAGICMIX software, a new feature of the PPG LINQ digital ecosystem for body shops.
Working in conjunction with the PPG MAGICBOX mixing room solution and PPG MagicSensor device, PPG MagicMix software receives real-time temperature and humidity data in the spray booth or designated application area. This means that painters and technicians can be confident in their product choices, whatever the weather. Using optimal products for environmental conditions helps to reduce the occurrence of short- and long-term paint defects and ensure a long-lasting, high-quality finish.
“Temperature and humidity levels differ vastly across geographical areas as well as fluctuating throughout the day and we can’t underestimate the effect this can have on the quality and longevity of vehicle repairs,” said Alban d’Epenoux, PPG global marketing director, Automotive Refinish.
“PPG MagicMix software, the latest addition to our PPG LINQ digital ecosystem, tells the painter exactly what they need for a successful repair according to current environmental conditions. This takes away any uncertainty about the best products to use and helps to prevent waste and free up productive time.”
