As a vendor and sponsor of the SE Collision Conference, Amanda Valmonte, BDM with PPG, talks with us about the latest automated mixing system technology called Moonwalk!
Moonwalk is 100% automated other than the loading of toners on the mixing bench and it's 100% accurate based off of the variant the painter selects!

The Moonwalk system is blowing up in the US! One of the main items that shops love is that 

  • it eliminates waste (aka $$$). It can measure to the 100th versus the 10th in 1 ounce
  • it's 100% accurate (better color matches and quicker)
  • any shops mixing 6-7 mixes/day can impact throughput by gaining an extra hour per day (5 hours back into production per week)
  • cuts down the spray out process : Moonwalk is part of the "LINK" system - visualized ID which is a 3D rendering based off of the variant and will show you the best 3D rendering for that color
  • all PPG customers can see if it's a good fit 
  • any non-PPG customers can see if this would be able to impact your business and improve efficiency
