At Bumpers That Deliver, we're passionate about supporting the future of the auto body industry. That's why we're proud to help out Careerline Tech Center's Auto Body Program. We donate our slightly returned and damaged fenders, but the true magic happens thanks to the dedicated instructors and talented students.
Investing in the Future:
The slightly damaged fenders we donate to the Careerline Tech Center become valuable learning materials for students, replicating real-world scenarios they'll encounter in their careers. This unique initiative allows students to not only learn the technical aspects of auto body repair but also how to adapt and overcome challenges presented by imperfections – a skillset essential for success in the field.
From Returns to Ready:
These slightly damaged fenders becoming training tools for MIG welding, paint mixing using PPG's state-of-the-art software (a valuable resource for students!), plastic repairs, painting process, dent removal, and vehicle disassembly- are only a few of the things the students learn. By providing these hands-on opportunities, Careerline Tech Center equips students with a valuable combination of technical expertise, problem-solving skills, and an instilled eye for detail.
Wet Sanding and Buffing: Refining Skills and Attention to Detail:
As students reach the final steps of refinishing, wet sanding, and buffing become testaments to their meticulousness and dedication. These techniques not only perfect the surface but also showcase the combined efforts of students and the incredible program at Careerline Tech Center. Every imperfection addressed reinforces the importance of a keen eye and unwavering attention to detail.
The Power of Imperfections: Building a Skilled Workforce:
While the fenders we donate might not be perfect for retail, they play a supporting role in preparing students for the realities of the auto body industry. By working with real-world components and overcoming challenges presented by imperfections, students graduate with a valuable combination of technical expertise, problem-solving skills, and an instilled eye for detail, making them highly sought-after professionals.
Bumpers That Deliver is happy to play a small part in this incredible journey, helping students become future auto body professionals one fender at a time!
