COLORADO SPRINGS, CO – A company that repairs stencil damage has been formed and has applied for a patent on its novel process. Coinx has reportedly developed a patent-pending repair method that uses similar processes and techniques as for auto body repair. Repairs can include long creases across the foil’s surface to unsightly dents up to ¼" deep. In most cases these repairs can also be made in the aperture field as well, provided it does not distort the integrity of the openings, says James Bishop, the founder. Most dents and dings can be removed quickly and effectively by a trained person on your staff at your facility, he adds. Bishop has been involved in the repair of dented and dinged metal panels for 17 years, primarily serving the auto body industry. Lately, the firm has worked with PhotoStencil to refine the process for stencils used in electronics manufacturing.
