Growing up Kat trained to be a car mechanic, she was inspired by her father and has always been passionate about cars and bikes. After working in different bodyshops, she decided to take the plunge and start up her own company around three years ago.

After spending so much time preparing alloy wheels by hand, Kat decided to contact Vixen Surface Treatments regarding an Aqua Wheelblaster.

Terry, one of Vixens Industrial Sales Engineers, visited Kat in Northern Ireland to discuss her requirements, which then led to her decision to purchase the machine.

KLC pride themselves on their priority being speed and efficiency, and the Aqua Wheelblaster makes that possible. This machine combines the standard six-stage process of manually preparing alloy wheels, into just one application.

The compact cabinet design ensures a dust-free process, which is safer for the operator using the machine. Kats machine was electrostatically powder-coated a darker grey than our standard machine to match her workshop, and also included a step to make it easier to see inside the machine.
