The 2018 Dodge Journey: Paint touch up
Paint touch up for your 2018 Dodge Journey? Start with a request; a person replies with a price and a time. 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.
Your Journey, up close
Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. As a compact SUV, it has more paint, glass and interior than a small car, so the work takes longer. There are 6 NHTSA recall campaigns on file for it; a dealer can check by the VIN.
From request to appointment
We confirm the price and the time with you before any work. 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
Rent by the day while your car is in, delivered to you. Add a rental to your request, and we deliver it to you. We deliver around Toronto; pickup at our location is free.
What goes into a quote
Options such as sensors, trim pieces or special paint can add time. Older paint or heavy wear can mean more preparation before the main work. For repairs, the price depends on the parts, the paint and the hours of work.
After the work
New paint needs time to harden fully; ask us when it is safe to wash and wax. Look over the work in daylight when you collect the car.
A few things first
Leave a phone number where we can reach you during the day. Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together. Ask any question you have before the work starts.
How long you are without it
If the work runs longer than planned, we let you know and you can keep the rental. We keep you posted if the timing changes.
