Your 626 and rust repair
Rust repair for the 1982 Mazda 626: send a request and a person replies with a price and a time. Rust is cut out or treated, then the area is refinished.
Your 626, up close
We note the car's condition with you when it comes in. Tell us the year and the trim; the details change from one to the next. Keep the repair invoice with the car's records.
How to request it
Ask anything about the work in the request. We confirm the price and the time with you before any work. Nothing is booked until you agree to the price and the time.
Need a car meanwhile?
A rental by the day covers the time your car is in. We bring the rental to you and collect it later. We meet you with the car at the time we confirm, at your address or ours.
How the price is set
Paint colours with pearl or metallic finishes can take more work to match. The same job can take more time on a car with more trim or detail. If we find something unexpected, we ask before we change the price.
Timing
Weather and curing times can change the schedule for some work. Coatings and paint need time to cure, which is part of the schedule.
Keeping it that way
Look over the work in daylight when you collect the car. Regular washes in winter help keep road salt from attacking the paint.
On the day
Ask any question you have before the work starts. Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a claim. Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together.
Make a request
Book the work with a short request, and add a rental if you need one.
