Protect Your Investment With ArmorThane

When the cool air settles upon us, it will be too late to take proper care of your most valuable physical assets, particularly your vehicles. You should check to see how prepared they are to handle the inclement weather before the bad weather comes. Wind, sleet, rain, and even snow—with non-stop days of continued wetter climate—can take a toll on vehicle and pick-up truck exteriors, fenders, wheel wells, bumpers, rocker panels, and more. 

Whether you operate your vehicle for recreational use, run a sole proprietor transportation business, drive a tractor for a privately owned farm, or own a series of commercial vehicles, your investment—and even your livelihood—can depend on making sound decisions when it comes to safeguarding your essential equipment during the colder periods.

DID YOU KNOW?

Vehicles, trucks, and other equipment can age prematurely from repeated poor weather exposure. The same is true and applies to ANY seasonal changes. Above-average warm weather temperatures come summertime is no exemption. The destruction of valuable equipment from literally “baking” in extreme heat over long periods can be detrimental to traditional exterior paint jobs and cause metal covers and flatbeds to deteriorate if not properly prepared. But the harsh winter elements can be especially hard on equipment surfaces of all types. Ideally, equipment should be stored in indoor garages or storage facilities, or under-covered awnings throughout the winter season. This is especially true in regions of the northern U.S. that experience less forgiving cold weather temperatures.

But during the winter season and year-round, bedliner technology can serve as a priceless “companion” for a pick-up truck, car, vehicle, and fleet operators looking to protect their investment. 

WHO OFFERS THE BEST?

We feel that ArmorThane offers the industry’s most trusted protective spray-on coating. Their elastomer sealant is durable and scratch and scuff-resistant to keep surface exteriors in top shape all through the cold season. Additional benefits include:

• UV and color protection to keep surface colors vivid and vibrant despite temperature extremes.
• Our heavy-duty, tensile strength coating is impervious to dings from mud, rocks, and other flying debris
• Doesn’t peel, bubble, or crack—even in heavy rain or other formidable types of climate

Especially if your pick-up truck, car, or cargo van is your brand, you’ll want to keep it in prime physical condition this winter—not just to ensure operability but to maintain an appearance that will still be sharp and polished come spring season for your customer prospects.

Also, for overall safety and smoother operability this winter, don’t forget to remove batteries from dormant equipment; lower/detach machinery parts from heavy equipment that will be “sitting” outside, and start winter preparations long before the harshest weather truly sets in. A few advance precautions can keep valuable equity in your pocket all winter long. Whether you manage a cargo van or utility truck or run a vehicle fleet—or even if you oversee a huge stock of commercial equipment that remains exposed year-round—it’s time to take stock in your preparedness to preserve your valuable equipment.
