Liquid Class Information

PPG's commitment to customer service means total commitment to our customers and suppliers from start to finish.

We offer Advanced Liquid Training because we know that the best performance of our customers' coating systems will result from the combined expertise of our customers, our suppliers, and ourselves.

The purpose of these two-day Advanced Training Seminars is two-fold:

  1. To help our customers better understand the liquid coating process through a hands-on study of the spray application systems.
  2. To give us, our customers and suppliers the greatest opportunity to communicate questions and expertise in sessions and in person.

Liquid Training is conducted in a relaxed and friendly atmosphere by many of the same people you deal with regularly as a PPG customer.  The class will be comprehensive, highly informative, well documented and action-packed.  In addition, this training could possibly be counted toward the ISO and QS Certification processes.  We look forward to seeing you soon.
