Paint touch up: the 1997 Jeep Cherokee
Your 1997 Jeep Cherokee 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.
The car itself
We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. NHTSA lists 4 recall campaigns for this model; a repair visit is a good moment to ask whether each was done.
What to send us
Tell us when the car is free and whether you can drop it off. Tell us whether you can drop the car off or need it collected. Nothing is booked until you agree to the price and the time.
Driving while yours is in
Add a rental to the same request as the work. A rental by the day covers the time your car is in. The handover is in person, at your address or at our location.
Aftercare
Hand washing is gentler than automatic brushes on any finish. Rinse off winter salt regularly to protect paint and wheels.
A few things first
Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together. If you need a rental, add it to the request so it is ready when you arrive. Point out anything you want us to pay special attention to.
Timing
Most small jobs fit within a day; larger ones are booked over several days. Weather and curing times can change the schedule for some work.
What affects the price
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. Options such as sensors, trim pieces or special paint can add time.
Ready when you are
