Paint touch up for the 1988 Mercury Sable

Book scratch repair for the 1988 Mercury Sable with a short request, and rent a car while yours is in. 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 Sable, up close

Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. As a wagon, it is a straightforward size for this work. Keep the repair invoice with the car's records.

Your request

Tell us when the car is free and whether you can drop it off. You can add a rental to the same request. Send a few photos and the year and trim; that is enough for a first price.

A car while yours is in

Choose a car from our fleet for the days the work takes. We bring the rental to you and collect it later. We deliver across the Toronto area, or you collect the car from our location for free.

What affects the price

The same job can take more time on a car with more trim or detail. For repairs, the price depends on the parts, the paint and the hours of work. We price the job before we start, never after.

On the day

Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work. Leave a phone number where we can reach you during the day. If you need a rental, add it to the request so it is ready when you arrive.

After the work

Park out of direct sun when you can to protect paint and interior. New paint needs time to harden fully; ask us when it is safe to wash and wax.

When the car is ready

If the car must stay overnight, we tell you before it comes in. Small repairs can take hours; paint and collision work can take days.

When you know your dates

Questions about the work? Ask them in your request.
