Author Description

This series of twelve video-tapes containing over four hours of footage introduces the collision repair student to modern automotive refinishing techniques. The tapes feature both live action and graphical images to visually demonstrate the vehicle preparation, surface preparation, masking, blocking and cleaning, sealing and primers, painting, spray techniques, detailing, and defect identification. The contents of these tapes have been correlated to cover NATEF's Painting and Refinishing tasks as thoroughly as possible. Each tape is broken into two ten-minute long parts and is designed to focus on a specific topic and to fit into classroom presentations effectively. These tapes are accompanied by an Instructor's Guide containing Pre- and Post-Tests, learning objectives, student review notes, a glossary of terms, and answer key for each tape.
