Booking the work for the 3 Series
The 1996 BMW 3 Series needs paint correction? Send photos and when it suits you. Outside work covers the paint, wheels, tires, glass and trim. Paint correction is machine polishing that takes out swirls and light scratches; deep scratches may need paint.
Size and finish
Tell us the year and the trim; the details change from one to the next. Premium cars often have more trim and sensors to work around; mention any options in your request. If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos.
Booking a time
We reply within one business day with a time and a price. Your quote is for your car, not a general price list. If the job turns out larger, we ask you before doing more.
Keep driving meanwhile
Pick the rental from our fleet; delivery is priced in the offer. We collect the rental when your car is ready. Delivery to your door is available across the Toronto area.
On the day
If you need a rental, add it to the request so it is ready when you arrive. Ask any question you have before the work starts. Arrive at the time we confirm, so the work can start on schedule.
How long it takes
A wash or a light detail takes hours; paint correction, film and coatings can take days. Pick-up time is confirmed when the work is finished.
Aftercare
A quick wipe of bird droppings and sap stops them from marking the paint. Keep a soft cloth in the car for small marks.
What affects the price
Two cars of the same model can need different work, so we quote each one. If you only need part of the work, say so and we quote that part. A quote lists what is included, so you can compare it fairly.
When you know your dates
When you are ready, a short request books the work.
