The Mobile Work Station® is made by Shop-Pro Equipment; manufacturer of portable filtration systems and mobile booths. The Mobile Work Station® has been popular with the auto body repair industry for over 20 years for its quality and productivity. Information on this line of portable equipment by Shop-Pro Equipment can be found on their website http://www.shop-pro.com.
SkillsUSA Nebraska received a Mobile Work Station® with a custom flat black finish which it will use at State Competitions. Director Greg Stahr noted that it will be put to use right away at this years’ Leadership and Skills Conference in Grand Island for the Collision Repair Painting Competition. “Providing a paint booth at the exposition sites we hold the competitions at has been a problem. We used the Mobile Work Station® from Shop-Pro Equipment at a competition in the past and it worked out great. Not only does it capture the paint overspray and odor, but the spectators and judges are able to watch without being in the booth” stated Stahr, and added “Having our own Mobile Work Station® is great because it’s portable and we can take it wherever the competition is held.”
