The 1985 Subaru XT: Scratch repair

Need scratch repair for your 1985 Subaru XT? Tell us about the car and when suits you. Light scratches can be polished out; deeper ones are filled and repainted.

About your XT

If something on the car is already damaged, show us in the photos. A bigger body means more surface to work on, which shows in the time. Keep the repair invoice with the car's records.

Booking a time

You can add a rental to the same request. A person reads your request and replies with the next step. Send a few photos and the year and trim; that is enough for a first price.

A rental meanwhile

Rent by the day while your car is in, delivered to you. We bring the rental to you and collect it later. The car can come to your door in the Toronto area, or you pick it up at no charge.

Pricing, plainly

Photos let us give a closer price before we see the car in person. A quote lists what is included, so you can compare it fairly. Simple jobs cost less; we tell you if a smaller job would do.

Aftercare

Park out of direct sun when you can to protect paint and interior. Keep the invoice with your records; it helps when you sell the car.

Planning around the work

You can plan the rental for the same number of days as the work. Bigger jobs are booked in a few days ahead; small ones can often be fitted in sooner.

On the day

Point out anything you want us to pay special attention to. Leave a phone number where we can reach you during the day. If you need a rental, add it to the request so it is ready when you arrive.
