The work on your Sable

Here is how we handle paint work for the 1987 Mercury Sable: the request, the work and a car to drive meanwhile. Paint work is matched to the original colour, panel by panel or the whole car.

Your Sable, up close

We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. A car of this size is quick to work on compared with a large SUV. Keep the repair invoice with the car's records.

Getting a quote

Send the year, the trim and what you want done; photos make the price more accurate. You can add a rental to the same request. Tell us whether you can drop the car off or need it collected.

Keep driving meanwhile

A rental by the day keeps you moving while your car is in. We collect the rental when your car is ready. Delivery starts at $75 plus distance; collecting the car yourself is free.

How long it takes

You can plan the rental for the same number of days as the work. Weather and curing times can change the schedule for some work.

Before you drop the car off

Leave a phone number where we can reach you during the day. Bring the keys you use every day, and the wheel lock key if the car has one. Point out anything you want us to pay special attention to.

What goes into a quote

Ask what is included, so you can compare quotes fairly. The quote shows the price for your car and what it includes. The size of the car matters: an SUV or a van has more surface than a compact car.

Aftercare

New paint needs time to harden fully; ask us when it is safe to wash and wax. Keep the invoice with your records; it helps when you sell the car.

Let us know

A short request is all it takes to get a price for your car.
