1979 Mercedes S-Class Paint Job

As a contrast with the 2007 S-Class we posted a few days ago, this Mercedes S-Class is a little older and desperately in need of paint. The old paint was faded and peeling. We repainted the entire car with a very economical Enamel single stage paint.

Camry with Peeling Paint & Broken Door Handle

The paint on the bumper of this Camry was coming off in sheets. The car was old enough that the remaining paint was dull, faded, chipped and scratched. The customer decided to paint the whole car with our economical but tough Enamel+UV single stage paint. We also replaced a broken door handle and fixed a small dent.

Basic Paint on 2007 Honda Civic Coupe

This is an example of our least expensive Enamel Single Stage paint job. The customer chose not to fix damage to the existing paint such as delamination (peeling) and microchecking (cracking.) So there are imperfections that show under new paint when examined closely.

We will never recommend painting over delaminating or microchecking paint because these problems will cause the new paint to quickly crack, blister and peel. And for this reason we cannot offer a warranty. But for this customer's purposes, the cost met his needs and the result looks quite good from a short distance--certainly much better than when he brought the car in.

The trunk and rear panels have different age damage called microchecking where the paint and primer are shrinking causing lots of microscopic cracks.
