Premier Paint 2000 claims to have a superior rock chip and scratch repair system that offers better fill and color matching than other systems. Does their system live up to its promise? Let’s examine the pros and cons of the Premier Paint 2000 touch up system.
Pros
- Color matching. PP 2000 uses high quality PPG paint to achieve superb color matches.
- Paint thickness. Premier has a thickness additive that reduces the shrink-back % of its touch up paint.
- Tech support. Premier’s tech support has a solid reputation for thorough support from experienced techs.
Cons:
- High Cost. At $6000+ per system, Premier’s touch up system is only affordable to large multi-line car dealerships and larger car washes.
- Bumpy repairs. Though Premier’s system includes a thickener, it does not use a fill putty like the Applied Colors touch up system to produce truly flat touch up repairs.
- Slow Repair Speed. The system requires that you find a car’s paint code and mix the paint from scratch. This takes up to 10 minutes per car…do your employees have the patience for such a system?
- No DVD training. Premier asks that its techs spend 3 days at their Kansas facility. Airfare, hotels, and meals could be as much as $1500. And can you leave work for 3 days?
- Complexity. Premier Paint 2000’s touch up system is essentially a complete PPG paint bench for a body shop resized for touch up. It’s not a tool you’d want to place in the hands of employees.
Summary
Premier Paint 2000’s touch up system does produce high quality repairs. But the price of the system and time investment in training make it a difficult match for most automotive businesses.
Unless you’re a full time, 40 hour a week touch up professional, it makes far more sense to purse more simplified and affordable paint systems.
