Scratch repair: the 2014 Tesla Model S
Here is how we handle scratch repair for the 2014 Tesla Model S: the request, the work and a car to drive meanwhile. Light scratches can be polished out; deeper ones are filled and repainted.
About your Model S
As a large sedan, it is a straightforward size for this work. Mention the trim and options, so we plan around sensors and trim pieces. If the car has open recalls, a dealer fixes them; ask about them while the car is off the road.
Getting a quote
Tell us when the car is free and whether you can drop it off. A person reads your request and replies with the next step. We confirm the price and the time with you before any work.
Keep driving meanwhile
Rent by the day while your car is in, delivered to you. Add a rental to the same request as the work. Delivery and pickup are both options across the Toronto area.
Aftercare
Park out of direct sun when you can to protect paint and interior. Ask us how to care for the work when you collect the car.
What affects the price
Paint colours with pearl or metallic finishes can take more work to match. For repairs, the price depends on the parts, the paint and the hours of work. The same job can take more time on a car with more trim or detail.
Planning around the work
Coatings and paint need time to cure, which is part of the schedule. Tell us the date you need the car back, and we say whether it is realistic.
Before you drop the car off
Tell us about any marks or damage already on the car, so we note them together. Bring the claim number and your adjuster's details if the repair is a claim. Ask any question you have before the work starts.
Send a request
Book the work with a short request, and add a rental if you need one.
Request scratch repair
Tell us when suits you; we reply within one business day with a time and a price.
