Local entrepreneurs, Paul & Diana Koetsch and Michael Rubin have joined with Dave Renfrew, the founder of Protection Plus in Shrewsbury, Mass to open its second location serving the western MA/CT area. Dave has been providing paint protection film since 2001 in eastern MA.

“We have a long history here in East Longmeadow,” Paul said.  “Starting with
our time together at Irving Auto Parts, Mike’s  father’s store – where it was  always fun to go and get your auto parts!"
 
"Our new venture,” Koetsch continued,  “is also a family affair with  Jon & Kim Westhall,
Erin Westhall, Jon & Kris Gaouette and William Koetsch making up the balance of the Protection Plus team and we are excited about that!”

In today’s economy, everyone should want to protect their investment in and preserve the resale value of their vehicles.  Protection Plus Paint Protection Film is one of the most effective ways to do so.
