Retrotec’s exclusive virgin ABS Panels are a vast improvement over fumbling with a frame, cloth and crossbar. Hard Panels slide and lock in place. The Fan’s foot goes in a slot then clamps into an O-Ring seal. That’s it… you’re ready to test. Clients gather round to see these cool panels. Professional performing tools sell jobs. sales@retrotec.com
