VAG SSP 214. The topic of vehicle painting continues to gain importance in the field of providing customer service. New technical processes and new materials – especially new paints – significantly increase the complexity of this specialist area. The field of vehicle painting is no exception to the rule that only services based on fundamental  knowledge can fully satisfy the demands of the customer.
