Paint touch up: the 2005 Ford Escape
Your 2005 Ford Escape and scratch repair: what to send us, what it involves, and a car to drive meanwhile. 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.
What your car means for the work
Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. Keep the repair invoice with the car's records.
How to request it
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. If the job turns out larger, we ask you before doing more.
Need a car meanwhile?
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. Add a rental to your request, and we deliver it to you. We hand every car over in person, at your address or at our location.
Why prices differ
Older paint or heavy wear can mean more preparation before the main work. A quote lists what is included, so you can compare it fairly. The quote shows the price for your car and what it includes.
A few things first
Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together. Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work. Leave a phone number where we can reach you during the day.
After the work
Keep a soft cloth in the car for small marks. Rinse off winter salt regularly to protect paint and wheels.
Planning around the work
We confirm how long the car will be with us when we confirm the price. We call or write when the car is ready, and you collect it or we arrange the handover.

A person reads every request and replies with the next step.
