Scratch repair: the 2012 Fisker Karma
For scratch repair on the 2012 Fisker Karma, it starts with a short request: what it needs and when. Light scratches can be polished out; deeper ones are filled and repainted.
Size and finish
As a small car, it is a straightforward size for this work. A car of this size is quick to work on compared with a large SUV. NHTSA lists 5 recall campaigns for this model; a repair visit is a good moment to ask whether each was done.
Booking a time
If the job turns out larger, we ask you before doing more. Ask anything about the work in the request. Tell us when the car is free and whether you can drop it off.
Driving while yours is in
While it is repaired, rent from us: an insurance replacement rental when the repair is a claim your adjuster approves, or at our usual rates. Your rental can be waiting when you drop your car off. The car can come to your door in the Toronto area, or you pick it up at no charge.
Getting the car ready
Take valuables and personal items out of the car before the work. If you need a rental, add it to the request so it is ready when you arrive. Arrive at the time we confirm, so the work can start on schedule.
Aftercare
Park out of direct sun when you can to protect paint and interior. Rinse off winter salt regularly to protect paint and wheels.
What affects the price
Ask what is included, so you can compare quotes fairly. A quote lists what is included, so you can compare it fairly. The size of the car matters: an SUV or a van has more surface than a compact car.
Timing
Most small jobs fit within a day; larger ones are booked over several days. Pick-up time is confirmed when the work is finished.

A person reads every request and replies with the next step.
