Auto paint: your Sephia
Your 1996 Kia Sephia needs paint work? Send the details, and we reply within one business day. Paint work is matched to the original colour, panel by panel or the whole car.
About your Sephia
We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. Tell us the year and the trim; the details change from one to the next. NHTSA lists 1 recall campaigns for this model; a repair visit is a good moment to ask whether each was done.
Your request
If the job turns out larger, we ask you before doing more. Tell us whether you can drop the car off or need it collected. We reply within one business day with a time and a price.
A rental while we work
While it is repaired, rent from us: an insurance replacement rental when the repair is a claim your adjuster approves, or at our usual rates. We bring the rental to you and collect it later. We bring the car to your address in the Toronto area, or you collect it for free.
Pricing, plainly
Simple jobs cost less; we tell you if a smaller job would do. If you only need part of the work, say so and we quote that part. If we find something unexpected, we ask before we change the price.
After the work
A quick wipe of bird droppings and sap stops them from marking the paint. Park out of direct sun when you can to protect paint and interior.
How long you are without it
Small repairs can take hours; paint and collision work can take days. You can plan the rental for the same number of days as the work.
Before you drop the car off
Photos of the damage taken at the scene help with the repair and the claim. Ask any question you have before the work starts. If you need a rental, add it to the request so it is ready when you arrive.
