Faced with the harsh reality that missing paintwork on a trade in or used car purchase can often times cost $1,000's8217;s; a record number of Car Dealers purchased the FS 488 Paint Meter
from FenderSplendor, Inc in May. FenderSplendor,Inc. President, Allen Willey, said the majority of the sales come from http://www.wholesalepaintmeters.comHe added that distributors are increasing their sales of the FS 488 Paint Thickness Gauge and may eventually
outsell the website. Willey, an eBay PowerSeller, also admits that 10-15% of his sales come from the 's8216;FenderSplendor1's8217; store on eBay.
In a recent interview Willey was questioned about the overwhelming success of the FS 488 Paint Meter. 's8220;Competitors have purchased our FS 488 and have called our office trying to pin
down the reason for the FS 488's8217;s astonishing success. We honestly don's8217;t feel the success of the FS 488 Thickness Gauge is related to any one item.'s8221; When pushed for more
specifics, Willey acquiesced, saying 's8220;We are the only Automobile Dealers in the business, and we specifically designed the FS 488 for the needs and the demands of the Automobile
Industry.'s8221; Willey later added that the fact he was both a New and Used Car Dealer gives him an extra advantage in understanding the buying habits of his customer's8217;s. He
concluded by saying that the website http://www.wholesalepaintmeters.com was also instrumental in his success.
Willey was a New Car Dealer in the 70's8217;s and 80's8217;s selling Toyota, Nissan, Pontiac, Chevrolet, and Rolls Royce vehicles. In 2002 he was buying used Jaguars in Michigan during a
snow storm and realized that it was time to get a Paint Meter.
Always somewhat of a pioneer, he saw the potential for marketing Paint Meters and contacted a German Manufacturer. 's8220;Originally all of our sales were on eBay, where we were also
selling Used Cars. Then we opened our website at http://www.wholesalepaintmeters.com and sales really ignited.'s8221;
After seeing the demand for Paint Meters, Willey decided to develop his own gauge, and flew to Hong Kong where he met with several instrument manufacturers. Following a year of
development and testing the FS 488 Paint Meter was released in March of 2006. With just a hint of a smile, Willey admitted that sales of the FS 488 have shocked him.
Willey finished by adding that he now has distributors in LA, New Orleans, Chicago, Tampa, Virginia, and Arizona; with plans to add another 10 distributors. 's8220;We also hope to add
quality distributors in Mexico, Canada, England, and South America.'s8221;
