Repairers Realm
Enter the Repairers Realm, a live web series where I-CAR's technical experts talk shop with you and make sense of information overload on all topics related to collision repair. These episodes include everything from multiple-part series on more extensive repairs, to one-off episodes featuring a specific vehicle.
I-CAR Subject Matter Experts kick off each episode at the news desk, then move the conversation into the shop for detailed, how-to-demos. During the demos, you’ll see collision pros from various industry segments provide step-by-step instructions on the latest procedures to make safe, complete and quality repairs.
Listen to their discussion, pick up tips from their demos and get your questions answered in the Q&A session at the end of each episode. Join the live sessions each month to get your questions answered in real-time by our I-CAR experts.
