Paint touch up for the 1981 Ford F-100
For your 1981 Ford F-100, scratch repair starts with a short request. 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
Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. As a car, it is a straightforward size for this work. There are 3 NHTSA recall campaigns on file for it; a dealer can check by the VIN.
Booking a time
Nothing is booked until you agree to the price and the time. Tell us when the car is free and whether you can drop it off. We reply within one business day with a time and a price.
A car 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. Rent the size of car you need for the days the work takes. Delivery and pickup are both options across the Toronto area.
How long you are without it
If the car must stay overnight, we tell you before it comes in. Coatings and paint need time to cure, which is part of the schedule.
After the work
Keep the invoice with your records; it helps when you sell the car. Rinse off winter salt regularly to protect paint and wheels.
Getting the car ready
Photos of the damage taken at the scene help with the repair and the claim. Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together. Point out anything you want us to pay special attention to.
What affects the price
The condition of the car matters too; heavy dirt, deep scratches or rust take longer. Two cars of the same model can need different work, so we quote each one. Ask what is included, so you can compare quotes fairly.
