The 1997 Saturn SL: Paint touch up
The 1997 Saturn SL needs scratch repair? Send photos and when it suits you. 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.
The car itself
Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. Keep the repair invoice with the car's records.
The request
Tell us when the car is free and whether you can drop it off. We reply within one business day with a time and a price. If the job turns out larger, we ask you before doing more.
A rental meanwhile
Rent the size of car you need for the days the work takes. We bring the rental to you and collect it later. We deliver around Toronto; pickup at our location is free.
Looking after it afterwards
Ask us how to care for the work when you collect the car. Ask us when the next visit would make sense for your car.
Why prices differ
If you only need part of the work, say so and we quote that part. We quote your car, not an average car, so the price fits the job. Larger vehicles take more product and more hours, so they cost more.
What to bring
Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a claim. Leave a phone number where we can reach you during the day. Bring the keys you use every day, and the wheel lock key if the car has one.
When the car is ready
Bigger jobs are booked in a few days ahead; small ones can often be fitted in sooner. We give you a time with the quote, so you can plan a rental for the right number of days.
