Paint touch up for the 1998 Ford F-150
Book scratch repair for the 1998 Ford F-150 with a short request, and rent a car while yours is in. 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.
The car itself
We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. As a pickup truck, it has more paint, glass and interior than a small car, so the work takes longer. Keep the repair invoice with the car's records.
Booking a time
Send a few photos and the year and trim; that is enough for a first price. We confirm the price and the time with you before any work. We reply within one business day with a time and a price.
Keep driving meanwhile
Add a rental to your request, and we deliver it to you. A rental by the day covers the time your car is in. Your offer shows the delivery fee if you want the car brought to you.
A few things first
Arrive at the time we confirm, so the work can start on schedule. Point out anything you want us to pay special attention to. Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together.
How the price is set
Ask what is included, so you can compare quotes fairly. If you only need part of the work, say so and we quote that part. For repairs, the price depends on the parts, the paint and the hours of work.
Timing
If the car must stay overnight, we tell you before it comes in. We give you a time with the quote, so you can plan a rental for the right number of days.
After the work
A quick wipe of bird droppings and sap stops them from marking the paint. If anything about the work looks wrong after you collect the car, tell us.
