Which skimming machine is the right one for me I hear you saying? Well it all depends on how many discs you intend on skimming and how fast you want to complete each job.  Also, do you want to machine drums and flywheels?

Are you going to offer it as a service to other garages in the area? Will you skim discs each and every time you change pads to eliminate brake noise and the dreaded “ drive carefully madam until the pads bed in”.

In addition to these questions are, can I skim drilled and grooved discs? Will the disc skimming machine fit into the rear wheel arch? Will my staff be able to operate it?

Call us and we will have an informal chat about your disc skimming requirements. After that if you like what you hear we will come to your workshop and do a demo on a vehicle of your choice – you can even have a go too if you like. All our staff are skilled engineers who can do a decent demo. If you like what you see we strike a deal, if not you send us packing! …..Can’t be fairer than that!
