The 2011 Mercedes-Benz Sprinter. Starting from $42,900.*mercedes-benz.ca/sprintersaves

Sure, you’d expect a Mercedes-Benz to be an expensive acquisition. But the truth is with its amazing fuel effi ciency – via our BlueTEC diesel engine – and 15,000 kilometer maintenance intervals, the 2011 Sprinter will cost you less to own over 5 years compared to the competition. In fact, up to $6,4001 less – which is money better spent on your business. How’s that for a Mercedes?

With a Sprinter you’ll save up to $6,400over 5 years. That’s a lot of lumber.

The Planex Drywall Sander + AutoClean Dust Extractor

You’ll reach high or diffi cult spaces with ease, translating to less time spent moving and setting

up ladders, while achieving a more balanced, fi nished surface all around.

Simple, solid extension system lets you add or remove extensions, so you can work in tight hallways

one minute and on your highest ceiling the next.

Variable-speed controls at your fi ngertips allow you to adjust the machine to the needs of the surface

for both rapid material removal and fi ne fi nishes.

Adjustable suction controls decrease the perceived weight of the machine, so you’ll work more comfortably

over the course of a long day.

When paired with the new CT 36 AC Dust Extractor, the Planex greatly reduces airborne dust, leading not only to the

perfect fi nished surface, but to less cleanup time and more satisfi ed customers.

What will you build fi rst?

Whether you work with mosaics or large-format tiles, an absolutely fl at, level, plumb, square substrate is essential for creating a perfect tile covering.

Saves time• Build a tile-ready surface without wood or cement board• No additional surface preparation required• Cuts with a utility knife

Ideal for wet areas• Waterproof, vapour retardant and dimensionally stable

Easy to transport and work with• Lightweight (contains no cement or fi berglass)• Printed gridlines for precise cutting• Suitable for use on any kind of structure • 7 thicknesses available

How do you move seamlessly between rough sanding, fi nish sanding and polishing without switching sanders? It’s easy when you own a Rotex multi-mode sander. Remove material as fast as a belt sander, then switch to random orbit mode for fi nal fi nishing. You’ll get a better fi nish while signifi cantly reducing sanding time. Plus you’ll eliminate the expense of multiple single-purpose tools. Supported by a wide range of abrasive and pad options, these do-it-all sanders give you tremendous sanding fl exibility, so you can achieve the perfect fi nish no matter the application.
