The Blend Stick™ - There are times when it is difficult to explain the need to blend adjacent panels to customers and insurance companies. The Blend Stick™ is designed to guide estimators and insurers through the process of properly assigning blend times to collision repairs. The stick has calculations to aide estimators in properly sizing the final repair area and determining if there is sufficient room left to blend within the damaged panel. This tool will set a standard for shops and insurers to fairly and accurately assign blend times to all repairs.
