The shop is partnered with Clips Plus, located in Ventura County. Clips Plus is also a family owned and operated company, supplying CARWORX products in Los Angeles and Ventura counties.
WRC Collision uses CARWORX’s EUROCLEAR MS+ polyurethane clear coat, which stands out for its scratch resistance, easy application and good leveling capabilities. It has excellent resistance to UV and fuel, and can be air- or force-dried.
Hovsepyan said the EUROCLEAR clear coat has advantages for both restoration and collision repair work.
“When you’re doing classic restorations, classic panels are a little different from modern cars,” he said. “It’s not plastic, and the metal is older.
“Once we tried CARWORX, it laid out the clear very nicely onto the panel, letting you see the details in the panel, which is what we look for.”
Hovsepyan said the shop’s employees tried the EUROCLEAR on a couple of cars and loved it.
“I received good feedback from our employees that it’s easy to work with,” he said. “It’s also easier to sand and polish.”
When refinishing collision repairs, Hovsepyan said the EUROCLEAR can be used with a medium reducer when a vehicle needs to be repainted very soon after completing the repair.
“It gives the benefit of being able to do it the way you want,” Hovsepyan said. “That has increased productivity on the collision repair side, so customers are happy. We’re happy.”
Since it works on such a wide range of vehicles, the shop uses just about all of CARWORX’s putties and fillers.
Hovsepyan said CARWORX is a great company to work with.
“We’ve noticed that Clips Plus is the only company that distributes CARWORX,” Hovsepyan said. “Per the owners, Sergio and Olivia, they have advised that CARWORX always gets the product to them quickly and is always available.”
WRC quality and production has gone to the next level thanks to the efficiency of CARWORX’s products.
“It’s like our name is on the car,” Hovsepyan said. “Now that we’re using CARWORX, it’s CARWORX’s and our name on the car."
