Paint touch up: your VHD
The 2003 Volvo VHD needs scratch repair? Send photos and when it suits you. 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
Photos of the car help us quote it accurately. If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. If the car has open recalls, a dealer fixes them; ask about them while the car is off the road.
From request to appointment
If the job turns out larger, we ask you before doing more. Your quote is for your car, not a general price list. Send a few photos and the year and trim; that is enough for a first price.
Keep your week on track
Rent by the day while your car is in, delivered to you. We collect the rental when your car is ready. Your offer shows any delivery fee before you pay.
Getting the car ready
Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work. Photos of the damage taken at the scene help with the repair and the claim. Bring the keys you use every day, and the wheel lock key if the car has one.
What affects the price
Older paint or heavy wear can mean more preparation before the main work. The same job can take more time on a car with more trim or detail. Two cars of the same model can need different work, so we quote each one.
Keeping it that way
Park out of direct sun when you can to protect paint and interior. Regular washes in winter help keep road salt from attacking the paint.
How long you are without it
If the work runs longer than planned, we let you know and you can keep the rental. Weather and curing times can change the schedule for some work.
Ask us
Book the work and a rental in one request.

Tell us when suits you; we reply within one business day with a time and a price.
