1999 Volvo s70 Color Change!

Almost Everything's Car of the Day is a 1999 Volvo s70.  This hefty european sedan came to us with a less than desirable finish, it had been painted at a sub-par shop previously and its paint had actually begun to fall off!  In addition to the failing paint, it had a damaged front fender, which we replaced with an Original recycled fender. Once we completed the bodywork the car moved into the sanding phase, where we removed all of the cars rock chips and scratches.  The car was now ready for paint, instead of staying with the dark blue greenish color, the owner decided to have us refinish the car with a rich red metallic!

1987 Porsche 944 Color Restoration

Almost Everything's Car of the Day is a 1987 Porsche 944 Turbo.  This classic sports car came to Almost-Everything with mis-matched body panels, unfinished body work and downright ugly all over. The owner has a small fleet of beautiful cars, one of which was painted "tornado red", a color that fit this porsche much better than its original white! Before we could lay on our new paint, the owner requested that we finish the existing bodywork. We began by smoothing and skimming over the existing body filler, and recreating the lost body lines. Next we sanded out all of the rock chips and scratches, and masked off all of the cars windows, lights, and trim.  Once the prep work was finished, the car was sealed with a primer and finally painted with our Enamel paint!

1989 Nissan Hardbody Color Restoration

Almost Everything's Car of the Day is a 1989 Nissan Hardbody pickup. This mini-truck came to Almost Everything with its original paint looking worn and unsightly. In some areas the paint actually had completely worn off leaving a bare metal surface, which was now rusting. We began our process by grinding down and treating the rust in certain customer specified areas, then removing all of the additional minor chips and scratches all around the truck. Next we sealed the entire exterior with a primer, which coats the existing surface and gives the new paint something to "bite" onto. Lastly we refinished the truck with our Enamel + UV Protectant paint in its original color!

1996 Chevrolet Camaro Color Change

Almost Everything's Car of the Day is a 1996 Chevrolet Camaro.  This Chevy started its life as a green car, somewhere along the lines a shoddy paint job was applied over the original paint, in addition to that there were some non-matching body panels standing out like sore thumbs!  We started the transformation by first sanding out all of the chips and scratches in the existing paint, then applying a primer sealer to seal the freshly sanded surface.  The owner wasnt liking the blue that the car had been painted previously too much, so he opted to refinish it with a newer and darker GM blue!

1968 Chevrolet Impala Color Change!

Almost Everything's Car of the Day is a 1968 Chevrolet Impala.  This old-school cruiser came to us looking pretty rough, it had a thick coat of epoxy primer applied over some existing 3rd party bodywork.  Naturally the flat grey wasn't the color that the owner wanted on his classic Chevy, so he decided to have us repaint the entire exterior and even the door jambs with our Base - Coat / Clear Coat paint.  Since the car did not have a trace of its original paint anywhere, the owner simply picked a color that he liked, it is called Dark Persimmon Metallic and definately fits this car perfectly!
