Auto paint: the 2013 Buick Encore
For the 2013 Buick Encore, paint work starts with a quote from a person, never a guess. Paint work is matched to the original colour, panel by panel or the whole car.
The car itself
As a compact SUV, it has more paint, glass and interior than a small car, so the work takes longer. If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. Keep the repair invoice with the car's records.
Your request
Send a few photos and the year and trim; that is enough for a first price. Your quote is for your car, not a general price list. A person reads your request and replies with the next step.
Driving while yours is in
Add a rental to your request, and we deliver it to you. A rental by the day keeps you moving while your car is in. Delivery and pickup are both options across the Toronto area.
Keeping it that way
A quick wipe of bird droppings and sap stops them from marking the paint. If anything about the work looks wrong after you collect the car, tell us.
A few things first
Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work. Ask any question you have before the work starts. Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a claim.
Timing
Book a little ahead for larger jobs; small ones can be quicker to schedule. If you need the car back by a date, say so and we plan for it.
How the price is set
Older paint or heavy wear can mean more preparation before the main work. The same job can take more time on a car with more trim or detail. We price the job before we start, never after.
When you know your dates
Tell us about the car and the work, and we take it from there.

Tell us when suits you; we reply within one business day with a time and a price.
