Once we've worked our magic on those panels, it's time to give them a fresh coat of paint. We start with a protective primer to ensure durability. Then, our team smoothes and sands the surfaces until they're perfect to ensure a flawless paint finish.
Before we spray, we scientifically match the colour to your vehicle's original shade, even if it's faded. Then, we head to our paint booth for painting. We filter the air to keep it clean, remove particles, ensuring a flawless finish. After painting, we bake the panels at 60°C, to make that fresh paint stick for good.
Existing, and new parts are fitted and your vehicle is reassembled. Panels are aligned and your vehicle is thoroughly checked for safety and compliance as well as workmanship.
Essential final step in the repair process. We polish your newly painted panels and existing panels to ensure that they are evenly matched. This process will leave you car looking as good as new.
Our quality control expert will give your vehicle a final inspection prior to arranging collection and handover of your vehicle to you.
