Bentley has released its training course schedule for Glasurit, the BASF refinish paint line that holds exclusive global approval for Bentley repairs. The training courses will be instructor-led for paint technicians who work within the Bentley Accredited Bodyshop Network, or are in the process of accreditation.
“The alignment in the industry between OEMs and collision shops has been a long time coming,” said Jeff Wildman, BASF OEM and industry relations manager. “BASF is the exclusive refinish paint approved for repairs of Bentley and Rolls-Royce vehicles, and offers more paint approvals than any other paint company in the industry. We work closely with OEMs to develop repair procedures, and ensure our products meet their specifications.”
