Paint touch up: the 1999 Buick Regal
The 1999 Buick Regal needs scratch repair? Send photos and when it suits you. Light scratches can be polished out; deeper ones are filled and repainted. Paint work is matched to the original colour, panel by panel or the whole car.
What your car means for the work
A car of this size is quick to work on compared with a large SUV. If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. Keep the repair invoice with the car's records.
Booking the work
If the job turns out larger, we ask you before doing more. We reply within one business day with a time and a price. Tell us whether you can drop the car off or need it collected.
Keep your week on track
Add a rental to the same request as the work. A rental means the work does not stop your week. Pick it up from us for free, or have it brought to you.
Getting the car ready
Point out anything you want us to pay special attention to. Ask any question you have before the work starts. Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a claim.
How long you are without it
We call or write when the car is ready, and you collect it or we arrange the handover. A clear timeline comes with every quote.
Pricing, plainly
Photos let us give a closer price before we see the car in person. For repairs, the price depends on the parts, the paint and the hours of work. The quote shows the price for your car and what it includes.
Keeping it that way
A quick wipe of bird droppings and sap stops them from marking the paint. Keep the invoice with your records; it helps when you sell the car.
Over to you
Book the work and a rental in one request.
