Go Thin
A.N. Designs now offers its UltraWiz UltraThin Paint Protection Blades
(51C1, 2, 3 and 4 Series), which are ready to use right from the package.
The blades are coated with a special resilient, durable coating, designed
to reduce the risk of scratches and paint damage while cutting out windshields
with exposed pinchwelds. Because the coated shank is narrow, the blade
can maneuver easily around tight radius corners without damaging paint,
according to the company.

SOFTWARE
Take GlassMate on the Road
Mitchell International has released an updated version of its GlassMate
software and has also created a mobile version of the software, GlassMate
Mobile.
GlassMate 6 allows its users instant access to NAGS part numbers and pricing,
along with the ability to prepare quotes, convert quotes to work orders,
and invoice customers and vendors. GlassMate Mobile also allows customers
to look up parts and pricing information on the go, access scheduled work
orders, and view work order details such as vehicle location, and parts
information right from their smart phones.
The GlassMate Mobile software can be integrated with GlassMate 6 as well,
so that all work order schedules created in GlassMate 6 are automatically
synced with the mobile system.

HANDLING SYSTEMS
Wood’s Powr-Grip® Releases Powr-Press Vacuum Hold-Down
The new Powr-Press from Wood’s Powr-Grip is designed to provide a fully
adjustable, hands-free tool with strong hold-down action for automotive
side mouldings, glue-on windshield mouldings and body emblems. The Powr-Press
acts as a third hand and assists technicians by keeping parts in place
without having to hold them in place manually or to apply masking tape
while adhesive is drying.
Within the system, a stainless steel bracket is fastened to the top of
the vacuum cup with the aid of an adjustment knob, which enables the bracket
to slide or swivel as necessary to hold a part in position. Each end of
the bracket is equipped with a 3-inch threaded screw with an adjustment
knob on top and a swiveling pressure foot on the bottom. Once the vacuum
cup has been secured to the surface, the bracket can be swung into its
holding position. The adjustment screws then are turned to apply the desired
amount of pressure.
