The 1999 Ford Taurus: Auto paint
For your 1999 Ford Taurus, paint work starts with a short request. Paint work is matched to the original colour, panel by panel or the whole car.
Size and finish
A car of this size is quick to work on compared with a large SUV. Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. If the car has open recalls, a dealer fixes them; ask about them while the car is off the road.
Your request
If the job turns out larger, we ask you before doing more. Nothing is booked until you agree to the price and the time. Send a few photos and the year and trim; that is enough for a first price.
Keep driving meanwhile
A rental means the work does not stop your week. Choose a car from our fleet for the days the work takes. We bring the car to your address in the Toronto area, or you collect it for free.
A few things first
Photos of the damage taken at the scene help with the repair and the claim. Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work. Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a claim.
How long you are without it
Parts on order can add days to a repair; we tell you when that happens. If you need the car back by a date, say so and we plan for it.
How the price is set
The condition of the car matters too; heavy dirt, deep scratches or rust take longer. Ask what is included, so you can compare quotes fairly. A quote lists what is included, so you can compare it fairly.
After the work
Rinse off winter salt regularly to protect paint and wheels. Park out of direct sun when you can to protect paint and interior.
Your move
Send a request with the car and the work, and we reply with a price and a time.

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