Toyota Prius Bumper & Tailgate Repair

We fixed a dent in the tailgate, replaced the bumper and repaired the rear body on this 2013 Toyota Prius. A tricky element is the 3-stage pearl white paint. 3-stage paints achieve special shimmer and highlight effects by stacking translucent color layers on top of each other. Minor variations in color or thickness of a layer can result in poor color match. For this reason all good body shops will tell you that color matching on a 3-stage paint is difficult or impossible and that blending (or fading) paint onto the adjacent panels is required for the repair to look less noticeable. Even with blending, there can be differences between paint applied to plastic vs. metal. So most insurance companies will not cover blending for bumpers and you may notice that the bumper color does not exactly match the rest of the car.

Complete Car Paint Job on 2000 Corolla

The paint on this older Corolla was delaminating (peeling) due to sun exposure. So the car looked pretty bad. But as everyone knows, a Corolla runs forever. So the customer put an inexpensive, single-stage paint job on the car and is now looking good for many more years of driving.

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.
