Booking the work for the C6
Paint touch up for the 1983 GMC C6: send a request and a person replies with a price and a time. 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.
Your C6, up close
A car of this size is quick to work on compared with a large SUV. Tell us the year and the trim; the details change from one to the next. Keep the repair invoice with the car's records.
What happens after you ask
Ask anything about the work in the request. If the job turns out larger, we ask you before doing more. Tell us when the car is free and whether you can drop it off.
Your car is in; you are not stuck
Your rental can be waiting when you drop your car off. Rent by the day while your car is in, delivered to you. We bring the car to your address in the Toronto area, or you collect it for free.
After the work
New paint needs time to harden fully; ask us when it is safe to wash and wax. Keep a soft cloth in the car for small marks.
Before you drop the car off
Leave a phone number where we can reach you during the day. Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together. Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a claim.
How long it takes
We keep you posted if the timing changes. Weather and curing times can change the schedule for some work.
How the price is set
Older paint or heavy wear can mean more preparation before the main work. The condition of the car matters too; heavy dirt, deep scratches or rust take longer. We explain the price in plain words if anything is unclear.
Let us know
When you are ready, a short request books the work.
