Competent service and efficient products – the Permafleet product system offers painters of commercial and special-purpose vehicles cost-effective solutions for all conceivable needs. Buses, coaches, trucks, box bodies, construction vehicles and tank trucks – commercial vehicles come in all shapes and sizes, and how the paint finish has to perform varies accordingly.
Different substrates such as aluminium, steel and plastic and different applications call for special product properties: Elasticity, non-slip characteristics and resistance to wear, chemicals, climatic effects and mechanical stressing, to name but a few.“Permafleet is more than just a paint system,” says Arno Steyns, Spies Hecker commercial vehicle specialist. “In addition to the balanced paints designed optimally for large surfaces, we support our customers with technical solutions, practical working aids and an extensive range of accessories.”
Technical data sheets and system posters give a rapid guide to the purposes, mixing and application of the paint system and ensure greater process security in the workshop. Individual support.
The Permafleet products meet the highest quality standards, and can be used for anything from customized original paintwork and repairs through to multicolour finishes. They score with rapid throughput and brief vehicle immobilization and adapt flexibly to the needs of the bodyshop. Professional advice is accorded top priority.
Arno Steyns explains: “Together with the bodyshop, we devise special paint system recommendations and optimize work processes in order to boost efficiency during application. We want commercial vehicles to stay on the road. Time laid-up in the bodyshop is costly for the owner.”“The range of services is rounded off with specialized seminars and practical training.” Arno Steyns adds. This way the business is perfectly equipped for trucks and vans.Another benefit is the possibility of branching out into new lines of business.
The Permafleet commercial vehicle system is compatible with the Permaflex product system for industrial coating and permits the painting of virtually any substrate with an abundance of possible effects.

Fast, high quality and inexpensive: MicroRepair with Standoflash
Standoflash from Standox, Wuppertal, is a particularly fast and economical UV refinishing system for bodyshops. All components dry in next to no time under UV light, cutting the usual repair times for small areas by up to 70 percent. Standoflash achieves brilliant results in only 25 minutes and allows bodyshops to offer professional repairs at attractive prices. The fully VOC-compliant UV refinishing system was launched in the market only a short time ago. Three examples from Germany show how it is used in practice by experienced bodyshop professionals.
It doesn’t matter if it’s a small dent or a deep scratch. “Take your time and have a coffee, we’ll repair your car in the meantime”, is what master craftsman Jürgen Mailbeck from Langenfeld likes to tell his customers in such cases – and is usually rewarded with incredulous looks. But Standoflash from Standox keeps what he promises, as the UV filler, stopper and 2K clearcoat set new standards in the repair of damage up to a size of an A4 sheet – not only in terms of speed, but also with regard to consumption and cost-efficiency.
All Standoflash products can be processed as usual. The only difference is that they dry extremely quickly under the special UV lamp, and consume less energy than conventional booth drying. The stopper, for instance, needs less than 45 seconds to through dry under the UV flashlight. This is beaten only by the filler, which needs less than 30 seconds. Master refinisher Klaus Stenzel, who works at the Burchert bodyshop in Kempen especially appreciates the fact “that the cars do not block the booth. We can perform all the necessary tasks at the filler application area.” This enables the workers to complete more jobs in the same time.
The reduced downtimes were also the main benefit that prompted Peter Triptrap, proprietor of E. Triptrap Fahrzeuglackierung in Schermbeck, to invest in the new UV system. “Now we can work in a continuous process. There are no more waiting times or major cleaning work, as the long potlives of the filler and the stopper (both 1K products) mean that no waste is produced.” “And the results are really convincing”, adds Jürgen Mailbeck. “It is true that the filler requires some getting used to, but it is easy to process. The same applies to the stopper. And the 2K clear offers excellent adhesion and a perfect flow, not to mention the fact that it can be polished immediately after drying. In fact it’s so fast there’s no time for a coffee break between coats,” he says tongue-in-cheek.
And the customers? They are highly satisfied – with the result of the repair, the time they save and the affordable price. After all, the bodyshop operators include the reduced time requirements, the energy savings and the low consumption of the UV materials into their calculation and pass these advantages on to their customers. And this approach pays off. Motorists who come to the bodyshop to have larger damage repaired increasingly decide to have smaller repairs as well. At least this is what the three professionals we interviewed have learned.

Standox seeks to build long term relationships with its customers based on premium product quality and high levels of practical support.
