Common questions

How is car paint colour-matched?

The paint code, existing finish and surrounding panels are assessed. The final specification and blending requirements depend on the vehicle and repair area.

Can peeling lacquer be repaired?

The extent and underlying condition must be assessed. A lasting repair requires removal or preparation of unsound material before refinishing.
