Paint touch up: the 1984 Buick Regal
Paint touch up for the 1984 Buick Regal: tell us about the car, and a person replies with a price and a time. Paint work is matched to the original colour, panel by panel or the whole car. Light scratches can be polished out; deeper ones are filled and repainted.
Size and finish
Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. A car of this size is quick to work on compared with a large SUV. Keep the repair invoice with the car's records.
What happens after you ask
Your quote is for your car, not a general price list. 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.
Driving while yours is in
A rental by the day keeps you moving while your car is in. We bring the rental to you and collect it later. We deliver across the Toronto area, or you collect the car from our location for free.
After the work
A quick wipe of bird droppings and sap stops them from marking the paint. New paint needs time to harden fully; ask us when it is safe to wash and wax.
What goes into a quote
The same job can take more time on a car with more trim or detail. If we find something unexpected, we ask before we change the price. Paint colours with pearl or metallic finishes can take more work to match.
Before you drop the car off
Leave a phone number where we can reach you during the day. 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.
How long it takes
A clear timeline comes with every quote. If the work runs longer than planned, we let you know and you can keep the rental.
Let us know
When you are ready, a short request books the work.
