FAQ

What should happen before any paint is sprayed?

The car gets washed, degreased, and stripped of whatever is coming off: handles, lights, badges, trim. Damage gets fixed, the surface gets flattened, primer goes on and is blocked level. Ask to see the car at the primer stage. What it looks like in grey is what it will look like in color.

Is it worth painting a car before selling it?

Rarely for the money. A buyer sees fresh paint and wonders what it covers, and a paint gauge tells them how thick it is. Fixing one scruffy panel is different, and so is a peeling roof, which reads as neglect from the sidewalk. Fix what looks like damage, leave what looks like age.

Do they paint the door jambs and edges too?

Ask, because this is where quotes quietly differ. A full repaint that skips the jambs, the hood underside and the trunk edges leaves the old color visible every time a door opens, and on a color change it looks unfinished forever. Doing them means more disassembly and more hours, and it belongs on the written estimate.

Can I get a paint quote without bringing the car?

[N_FREE] of the 24 shops advertise free estimates, and paint is the job where that still means bringing the car. A painter needs daylight and an angle to see how far the clear coat has gone and whether the old finish will take another coat. Photos only get you a range.
