Auto paint: your RAV4
For the 2012 Toyota RAV4, 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
A bigger body means more surface to work on, which shows in the time. Tell us the year and the trim; the details change from one to the next. If the car has open recalls, a dealer fixes them; ask about them while the car is off the road.
Booking the work
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. You can add a rental to the same request.
Keep driving meanwhile
A rental means the work does not stop your week. Add a rental to the same request as the work. We deliver around Toronto; pickup at our location is free.
Why prices differ
We explain the price in plain words if anything is unclear. Ask what is included, so you can compare quotes fairly. If you only need part of the work, say so and we quote that part.
Aftercare
Ask us how to care for the work when you collect the car. A quick wipe of bird droppings and sap stops them from marking the paint.
Before you drop the car off
Leave a phone number where we can reach you during the day. If you need a rental, add it to the request so it is ready when you arrive. Bring the keys you use every day, and the wheel lock key if the car has one.
Timing
Tell us the date you need the car back, and we say whether it is realistic. Parts on order can add days to a repair; we tell you when that happens.
Over to you
A short request is all it takes to get a price for your car.
