Strongsville, Ohio — September 19, 2017 — Got a custom itch? PPG has announced its schedule of custom painting classes for the remainder of the 2017 calendar year. According to PPG, the courses are designed to help paint technicians use PPG products to bring their imaginations to life and create one-of-a-kind paint schemes for custom car and truck builds.
The courses are held at PPG Business Development Centers and various field locations across Canada and the US. Technicians receive classroom instruction along with hands-on training in the shop. A full range of topics is covered from product selection, equipment and color tools to surface preparation and paint application best practices.
