How We Make Your Car Look Like New
Step 1: Body repair
As part of our service, our experienced body repair technicians get rid of those blemishes to ensure that your car is free from any unsightly dents and scratches.
Step 2: Preparing the Surface
Surface preparation involves getting rid of any exposed services that can ruin your paint job. We take great care to examine the vehicle and make sure the surface is prepared properly so that it looks great in any environment.
Step 3: Sealing the Surface
A lot of vehicles suffer from an uneven gloss and color due to a mixture of old and new paints. We offer different grades of sealer to ensure that your car retains a consistent color and a higher level of gloss, ensuring the shine stays long after the job is finished.
Step 4: Painting
We offer three packages for your specific needs and budget, with each one tailored to ensure the vehicle maintains its sheen and longevity.
Step 5: Protection and Finish
Any great paint job needs to be protected. We apply clear coats to our paint jobs to protect the paint and to guarantee gloss and a seamless appearance.
Step 6: Proper Car Care
It’s important to make sure that we all look after our cars, and the right maintenance can ensure that our car is going the distance. Some of the things you can do involve parking in the shade, avoiding driving on unstable surfaces, and washing your vehicle regularly.
