Paint touch up: the 1995 Ford Contour
For the 1995 Ford Contour, scratch repair starts with a quote from a person, never a guess. 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.
About your Contour
Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. As a compact car, it is a straightforward size for this work. There are 8 NHTSA recall campaigns on file for it; a dealer can check by the VIN.
Getting a quote
We reply within one business day with a time and a price. You can add a rental to the same request. Send the year, the trim and what you want done; photos make the price more accurate.
Driving while yours is in
While it is repaired, rent from us: an insurance replacement rental when the repair is a claim your adjuster approves, or at our usual rates. Pick the rental from our fleet; delivery is priced in the offer. The car can come to your door in the Toronto area, or you pick it up at no charge.
What affects the price
Paint colours with pearl or metallic finishes can take more work to match. If you only need part of the work, say so and we quote that part. Two cars of the same model can need different work, so we quote each one.
How long it takes
Bigger jobs are booked in a few days ahead; small ones can often be fitted in sooner. Parts on order can add days to a repair; we tell you when that happens.
Looking after it afterwards
Rinse off winter salt regularly to protect paint and wheels. If anything about the work looks wrong after you collect the car, tell us.
Getting the car ready
Photos of the damage taken at the scene help with the repair and the claim. Arrive at the time we confirm, so the work can start on schedule. Leave a phone number where we can reach you during the day.

When you are ready, a short request books the work.
