Re: Camera Calibration on vehicles

Has anyone here done MOBILE ADAS Recalibrations? If so what are the drawbacks, limitations and "real" out in the field situations that can make you wish it was still 1999.

Re: Do any of you all have employees

It is very difficult to "trust" your employees in this type of business. You can get them to sign a no compete waiver but how do you enforce it? You can track and limit your access to equipment and supplies or franchise your company.

Re: Intro/Thoughts?

Sound like you have a solid business plan. Like everyone here is saying...QUALITY repairs will trigger more business. Only advice I have is to stay on top of the new things in Windshield Repair, manage the EXPECTATIONS of your customers and be honest.

Re: Making bulleyes and dealing with moisture

When using your heat exchanger remember to use it "around" the area you want to cool. Do not put it directly on damage or it may crack out.

Re: FEBUARY WEATHER

In the Bay Area and California we have a drought for past 2-3 years. I had to use my heat exchanger this weekend to cool down the WS! Maybe have another "side" bizniz like headlight restoration or side lite, dent repair. When you are mobile it is tough to add on without having a retail location. Div...

The customers love it when they get this "Gratis" (free). Of course if the WS is full of pits then its not worth the time and effort. Its no...

Surface Pits on Windshields

Delta Kit's Korey Gobin recently attended the ROLAGS meeting in San Diego and this topic of surface pits came up. I recommend that if a customer or potential customer has one or two simply fill them as a "freebie". This way you will get the customer satisfaction knowing you are helping them out and ...
