Paint touch up: your Ram 1500 Pickup
Your 2012 Dodge Ram 1500 Pickup and scratch repair: what to send us, what it involves, and a car to drive meanwhile. 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.
The car itself
As a pickup truck, it has more paint, glass and interior than a small car, so the work takes longer. A bigger body means more surface to work on, which shows in the time. NHTSA lists 6 recall campaigns for this model; a repair visit is a good moment to ask whether each was done.
Booking a time
Your quote is for your car, not a general price list. We confirm the price and the time with you before any work. We reply within one business day with a time and a price.
Your car is in; you are not stuck
A rental by the day covers the time your car is in. We bring the rental to you and collect it later. Delivery and pickup are both options across the Toronto area.
Pricing, plainly
We explain the price in plain words if anything is unclear. Options such as sensors, trim pieces or special paint can add time. The size of the car matters: an SUV or a van has more surface than a compact car.
A few things first
Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work. Ask any question you have before the work starts. Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together.
Looking after it afterwards
Regular washes in winter help keep road salt from attacking the paint. New paint needs time to harden fully; ask us when it is safe to wash and wax.
Timing
If the car must stay overnight, we tell you before it comes in. Most small jobs fit within a day; larger ones are booked over several days.
Next step
Questions about the work? Ask them in your request.
