FixFin — Automotive Equipment Financing
COLLISION, AUTO BODY & REFINISH EQUIPMENT

USED EQUIPMENT.
NEW POSSIBILITIES.

FOUND THE RIGHT BENCH, BOOTH, MEASURING SYSTEM OR REFINISH SETUP AT THE RIGHT PRICE? Eligible used collision and body shop equipment may be considered — describe what you found and let's look at the transaction.

FixFin may help eligible Canadian collision, body shop and refinish businesses explore financing for qualifying used equipment. Depending on the equipment and transaction, factors such as condition, anchoring and hydraulic status, software licensing and database coverage, relocation and re-commissioning history, documentation, seller information and installation scope may all be relevant to the financing review.

THE USED COLLISION EQUIPMENT MARKET

Collision equipment circulates: shops upgrade, MSOs standardize across locations, dealers take trade-ins — benches, racks, measuring systems, booths, prep stations, welders and extraction all come back onto the market. A used bench or booth is often the fastest way to add a stall or take a contract.

The caution is documentation: lifting equipment lives by its service history, software-driven systems live by their licensing and data, and relocated booths live by their re-commissioning records. Those details have to be confirmed with the seller — and they help the financing review too.

EVERY EQUIPMENT CATEGORY, ON THE USED MARKET

WHAT BUYERS COMMONLY CONSIDER IN USED COLLISION EQUIPMENT

Equipment condition — the actual unit, seen in current photos or in person
Anchoring and hydraulic condition on benches and racks
Licensing, subscriptions and database coverage on measuring and control systems — confirmed with the seller and manufacturer
Booth relocation and re-commissioning documentation where the equipment was disassembled
Service history and documentation
The seller — dealer trade-in, shop upgrade or closure, or private sale

These are business-level planning considerations — FixFin doesn't certify equipment condition or safety, and this isn't inspection or operating guidance. The new-vs-used considerations for collision equipment are covered in the resources below.

DOES THIS SOUND LIKE YOUR PURCHASE?

A SHOP IS UPGRADING OR STANDARDIZING

Shops moving to new benches, booths and joining equipment put proven equipment back into circulation — complete structural bays and refinish systems come onto the market as one configuration.

AN MSO IS CONSOLIDATING LOCATIONS

Multi-location operators standardizing equipment across shops release used collision equipment in batches — multi-unit projects that can be reviewed as one.

YOU'RE ADDING A STALL ON A BUDGET

A used bench or prep station can stretch an expansion budget — the equipment is what FixFin looks at, described exactly as you're buying it.

YOU FOUND A LISTING THAT'S TOO GOOD TO PASS UP

Move on it — condition details and documentation help the review, and a quote or purchase agreement gives everyone clarity.
