Paint that protects your bodywork

Car paint isn't just about looks. It protects the body from corrosion, UV radiation and the weather. When paint fades or peels, or scratches and rust spots appear, the metal is left unprotected and the damage starts to spread.

Timely painting helps stop rust and keeps your car's appearance and market value. We restore damaged panels after an accident, bodywork repair or welding, and we also respray cars if you want a new look.

Before we start, the mechanic inspects the car, explains what needs doing and agrees the price. Only then do we begin.

How car painting works

Quality painting is largely about careful preparation, so we give each step as much time as it needs.

Body preparation
We wash, degrease, sand and smooth out damaged areas, applying filler where needed.
Priming and colour matching
We tailor the primer to the specific car and match the colour to the manufacturer's data or your wishes.
Painting in the booth
We paint in a special booth that ensures an even finish and keeps out dust and impurities.
Clear coat and drying
We apply a protective clear coat for extra shine and protection, then dry the car under optimal conditions.

We give a warranty on all work carried out at our garage.

The quality of a paint job is mostly down to the preparation, not the paint itself. That's why we never rush the sanding and priming, and after painting we recommend washing the car gently by hand at first.

How much does car painting cost?

The price of car painting depends on the number of panels, the damage and how much preparation is needed. The consultation is free: the mechanic inspects the car and agrees the price before we start work.

How can I tell if my car's paint is damaged?

Signs include scratches and scuffs, faded paint, rust spots, and peeling or bubbling paint. Bubbles often point to moisture or a poor-quality previous paint job.

How long does car painting take?

It depends on the extent of the damage and the number of panels to be painted. The mechanic will tell you the exact time when agreeing the work.

Why should a car be painted promptly?

To stop corrosion and preserve your car's appearance and market value. The longer the metal stays without paint protection, the bigger the rust damage gets.

Can you match the original paint colour?

Yes, we match the colour to the manufacturer's data so the new paint blends with the rest of the body. If you want a different colour, we'll choose it to suit your wishes.

How should I care for my car after painting?

Wash the car gently at first, as fresh paint needs time to cure fully. After the work, the mechanic will tell you how to look after the paint going forward.
