The weather is hot and so are the industry trends in this new summer edition of Collision Repair Magazine! These summer months always seem to bring the Canadian collision repair community together, and this year was no different, as our team spent much of June and July bustling about at events hosted by the industry’s biggest players.
Speaking of players, former junior hockey player and current CSN Reliable manager, Curtus Larson adorns the front page of this new issue. For Curtus, being a part of a team is nothing new; leading a team and being responsible for its culture, however, proved to be a whole other challenge for Curtus.
There’s a lot of collaboration in the collision industry’s future
“The industry sees that collision centres are not just a cog in the

Designed for PPG ENVIROBASE® High Performance toners, the PPG MoonWalk mixing system virtually eliminates human error and waste when mixing a refinish color—while achieving unprecedented color accuracy. Operation is simple. Once the target color’s toners are loaded onto the dispensing rack, the system automatically dispenses each toner with an accuracy that PPG says is 10 times more precise than conventional mixing. Waste is further eliminated since the technology and packaging is configured to use all of each toner, down to the last drop.
