Lombard Equipment sold Pro Spot for many years — and we know the product well. Pro Spot built a strong reputation in U.S. collision repair, and it's still one of the most recognized names in the industry.
In recent years, however, we've seen a meaningful decline in Pro Spot's parts availability, software support, and OEM approval updates. After careful consideration, Lombard Equipment made the decision to stop selling new Pro Spot equipment and transition our primary recommendation to GYS — which now holds broader OEM approvals, receives regular software updates, and is backed by a stronger U.S. support network.
We're not here to talk you out of Pro Spot. We're here to give you the honest picture that comes from having sold both — so you can make the best decision for your Maine shop.
We carry certified refurbished Pro Spot equipment — including the i4 480v and Hybrid models — inspected and ready for service.
