Sherwin-Williams Training to Cover Business Building, Productivity and Lean Practices, Painting Techniques

Sherwin-Williams Automotive Finishes will offer more than two-dozen classes and training sessions designed to help automotive collision professionals in the first quarter of 2010.

The upcoming business-building and production-excellence courses are being provided through classroom, Web and hands-on settings at numerous Sherwin-Williams Automotive Finishes training centers located in metropolitan areas across the United States and Canada.

The classes consist of multiple courses designed to increase shop productivity and include classes that focus on painter certification, AWX waterborne systems, color adjustment and blending, fleet refinishing, OEM certification training, accurate estimating, workshop efficiency and much more.

Sherwin-Williams says many of the new classes directly relate to the company’s philosophy of helping its customers through “lean thinking” – introducing concepts that support sustainable practices – which increases productivity while minimizing or often eliminating waste. To that end, focus will be given to the company’s AWX waterborne coatings technology and the new Express Scratch Repair system, which is designed to help shops increase profits through add-on work and minor repairs easily accomplished with its air-dry, HPC 15 Clearcoat technology.
