Caravan smart repair with HBC systems
Why replace the whole side of a caravan just because of a small dent? It is both time-consuming as well as very expensive. With system E you acquire a perfect finish due to specially designed vacuum tools, level-rail, and a specially developed Mouldmaker which recreates the original pattern of the damaged area.

The Press wrote: “Ingenious system for repairing aluminium plates on mobile-homes, caravans, and trailers.” 

HBC system, developer and manufacturer of smart repair systems mainly for the auto business, has now developed an upgrade system capable of repairing very major damage on aluminium panels.

It is now possible to repair aluminium panels with major damage of up to 3 metres. The system applies to a vast number of rolled relief panels on gates, furniture, buildings, cars and caravans or any surface of a similar construction. With this possibility there are no arguments for not repairing.

Painting of caravans and mobile homes
For maximum colour accuracy we recommend our scanning system. Today our list comprises more than 500 different colours. If we do not have the colour you need, you can send us a sample, we will then scan it and add it to our list, after which it is available for everybody. This service from HBC system is free. Fusion spraying with new and old paint.

We have introduced another innovation – Fade Thinner.
This melts together / dissolves the old and the new paint creating a better finish by eliminating the over spray and spray dust which often necessitates extra polishing to obtain perfect finish.

Caravan primer, white
We have also developed a new white ground colour, this white primer improves the repair job considerably.
