Refinishing Crew are set to make their debut at our sister show, Automechanika UK Birmingham 2027 👏

Alex Jones, Marketing Director, said: “We are so grateful that Sunny came to us with this initiative, we’ve worked together in a small capacity over the years to make sure the show delivers a great offering to the community and we’ve always respected how he nurtures and supports everyone in the Refinishing Crew Facebook group.�"

“The group is fantastic but having the chance to meet someone in person, especially in these challenging times is the cherry on top so the fact we will now have a dedicated space for The Refinishing Crew community to come together, to share experiences and network is fantastic."

There were plenty of laughs, some tough questions... and even hotter sauces!
