By clicking on the Picture Above you can check-out our YouTube Video. Using UV Lighting to Sanitize At Graham Auto Repair we have started working on something new. As soon as we heard that it may be possible to destroy the Coronavirus / COVID-19 using Ultraviolet (UV) technology, we researched how to offer this service in our Shop, to assist in slowing down the spread of the virus. Let’s take a moment to talk about UV Lighting, what it is and how we are using it. What is UV Lighting? As you may already be aware, there are multiple types of UV lighting. All of these are produced by the sun. The types of Ultraviolet wavelengths that we normally hear about are UV-A and UV-B. These are the types that we regularly seek protection from, especially during the summer months, by wearing sunscreen. Exposure to UV-B rays will increase the risk of DNA and other cellular damage in living organisms; but about 95% of UV-B rays are ... read more

They are doing this by offering things like, 90 days deferred payments, free ship to home, 60 or 84 month extended loans, and some are even offering 0.0% Interest payments.

It's Time to Spring Forward! Check out our YouTube Video by clicking on the photo above. This Sunday, March 8th, will be Daylight Saving Time. Don't forget to set your clock one hour ahead before you go to bed on Saturday. You don't want to get left behind when everyone else springs ahead! If on Monday you climb in your car and realize that the clock in your vehicle is harder to change than it should be (why are those ones so much harder to change than house clocks?) stop on by. We would love to help you! Some Quick Fun Facts About Daylight Saving Time 1. Ancient civilizations used comparable practices to Daylight Saving Time (DST) long before it became what it is today.
