Refinishing Process

The Following Process Reinforces Our Strength in the Industry

After all of the body and frame damage is corrected on your vehicle, we will apply two to three coats of the finest quality, catalyzed, urethane primer surfacer. The primer meets or exceeds all manufacturer specifications for paint preparation and is applied in a clean, quality-controlled environment. This helps to ensure that the repair is invisible.

When the surface imperfections have been removed and the vehicle is ready for refinishing, the next step is to mix the proper color for your vehicle. All of our color mixing is completed inside our own facility with two PPG touch Mix Computer systems. The computers show the correct amount of pigment to add to the formula to guarantee a good color match. The computer even has shading tips for your custom-color match needs.

Your vehicle is now ready for paint-prep in one or our down draft preparation stations. The preparation includes everything from sanding the surface to the affected panels to masking and cleaning your vehicle.

After the surface of your vehicle has been properly prepared and the color properly prepared and the color properly mixed, it is time to begin the refinishing process in one of the country's best-equipped refinishing departments.

We apply an epoxy primer coat, base coat color and an acrylic urethane clear coat all in our "DeVibiss" concept cure-down draft spray booth. After the proper painting materials are applied, the finish is then baked to ensure that your vehicle meets or exceeds factory specifications.
