This customer brought in their 2009 Lexus IS250 for an complete paint job to correct vandalism. They chose our Enamel single stage paint with our basic sealer. We sanded off the peeling paint on the front left door. The vandalism left deep scratches on all the panels of the vehicle which we sanded out with our Chip & Scratch Major sanding package. Once the scratches were sanded out we got the car in the booth. Unfortunately the vandal pressed deep into the metal and left indentations of the key marks which were visible underneath the primer. We mentioned this to the customer and she approved another round of sanding. We redid the process and the second time around the scratches were covered. Once the paint was cured the vehicle looked as good as new!

2006 Chevrolet Monte Carlo-Overall Paint Job and Body repairs
This customer brought in her Monte Carlo to get painted after it was vandalized. She chose to bring in her own parts for us to install. We installed the left fender, left fog light, left and right headlights and the front bumper cover. She had decided on the Urethane Base Coat/Clear Coat 2-stage paint with a sealer. She also chose for us to get rid of the delaminating paint (peeling) to make sure it didn't show up under the new paint. Just look at it glow!

Vandalism
Vandals broke the window and keyed this 2009 Ford Escape. We worked with Allstate Insurance to repaint the scratched panels and replace the broken glass and damaged interior trim.

Lambo in the House!
2005 Lamborghini Gallardo was either keyed or maybe scratched by a dog that was as excited as we were to see this gorgeous exotic. We smoothed out the scratch marks and repainted the door.

Key Scratches on Chevy Tahoe
Almost Everything's Car of the Day is a 2001 Chevrolet Tahoe that had been vandalized. Every panel except the roof had deep key scratches. Otherwise the vehicle was in great shape. Unfortunately, the customer did not have insurance coverage for this type of damage. He chose our Major Chip & Scratch Repair, a new coat of primer sealer to cover the bare metal from the scratches, and painted the whole vehicle with a budget-friendly single-stage paint.

1998 Mustang Cobra Vandalized
Almost Everything's Car of the Day is a 1998 Mustang Cobra. This Muscle Car came to our shop after being vandalized by a gang armed with keys. There were scratches and gouges all over the car, most of which we sanded out, the ones that would not sand out were filled with a "high build" primer. Once the sanding and prep were complete, the entire car was sealed with a light primer-sealer. The Cobra was now ready for paint! We applied 4 coats of our premium Base Coat/Clear Coat paint to make this Mustang shine like new again.
