First in Workmanship.
The VisionPLUS Lifetime Warranty isn’t available to just anyone with a paint sprayer. Only collision centers with certified painters are eligible to offer the VisionPLUS Lifetime Warranty. In fact, both the painter(s) and the collision center must be certified to participate in the program. In order to qualify, painting professionals must receive training on proper equipment. In addition to certified painters, the collision centers are evaluated for:
- professionalism
- reliability
- proper equipment
- safety procedures
- consistently high performance
These high standards are necessary to avoid finish failures that could be caused by improper application procedures. At certified VisionPLUS Lifetime Warranty Centers, painters use only materials and methods that meet the highest standards in the industry. When it comes to workmanship, BASF finishes first in the world.
Caring for Your Finish.
Once you’ve had your vehicle refinished with BASF products, you’ll want to keep it looking the best it can. Here are some tips:
- Wash regularly using clear water for the first 30 days.
- After 30 days use mild dish detergent or soap and water.
- Avoid harsh detergents.
- Rinse with clear water. Dry with a soft cloth or chamois.
- Avoid the use of any wax for at least 3 months.
- If you spill gasoline on your finish, allow the fuel to evaporate for one hour, then wash with a mild dish detergent and water.
