Your 1997 Mercury Tracer: the work
Book scratch repair for the 1997 Mercury Tracer, with a rental meanwhile if you need one. 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.
Size and finish
As a compact car, it is a straightforward size for this work. If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. Keep the repair invoice with the car's records.
What to send us
Send the year, the trim and what you want done; photos make the price more accurate. Tell us when the car is free and whether you can drop it off. You can add a rental to the same request.
Keep your week on track
Keep driving: rent from us while the work is done. Choose a car from our fleet for the days the work takes. The car can come to your door in the Toronto area, or you pick it up at no charge.
On the day
Photos of the damage taken at the scene help with the repair and the claim. Ask any question you have before the work starts. Leave a phone number where we can reach you during the day.
Why prices differ
Paint colours with pearl or metallic finishes can take more work to match. If you only need part of the work, say so and we quote that part. Two cars of the same model can need different work, so we quote each one.
Keeping it that way
Ask us how to care for the work when you collect the car. Regular washes in winter help keep road salt from attacking the paint.
How long you are without it
A clear timeline comes with every quote. We give you a time with the quote, so you can plan a rental for the right number of days.
