1999 Mercedes Benz S500 Paint Job!

Almost Everything's Car of the Day is a 1999 Mercedes Benz S500. This European Land Yacht came to our shop dinged and dented with gouges in its bumpers, rock chips and scratches galore. On top of all that its paint was peeling! We began with some much needed bodywork. We worked with the car's owner and found all of the dings, dents and gouges that he wanted to have fixed and repaired those before the Mercedes went into sanding, where we removed all of the Rock Chips and Peeling or "Delaminating" paint! Finally the S500 was ready for its new paint job, we applied the original black pearl color in our Enamel paint grade for an affordable long lasting finish!

2001 Honda Accord Re-Paint!

Almost Everything's Car of the Day is a 2001 Honda Accord.  This Honda's paint was peeling like crazy when it came to our shop!  The car's original paint had failed years ago, leaving the surface looking white, and flaky. We commonly repair this exact problem on cars of this ones era, especially Hondas! We begin by sanding off all of the old "Delaminating" paint, smoothing it down to an even paintable surface.  Once sanding is completed, all of the windows, lights and trim are masked to avoid getting overspray on them, and we applied a primer sealer. Finally it was ready for its new coat of Base Coat / Clear Coat paint!

Totalled 2001 Honda Accord.

Almost Everything's Car of the Day is a 2001 Honda Accord. This poor sedan was the victim of a forceful utility vehicle. It was rear-ended and pushed into an intersection causing an incredible amount of damage to the Accord! All insurance information was exchanged by both parties. However the owner of the Honda could not make contact with anybody at the other party's insurance company! He came to us for help. We got in contact with the appropriate people and immediately got him into a rental vehicle so this unsafe car would be off public roads. The damage is so severe that we expect it will be written off as a total loss. We can help solve many issues between you and an insurance company, don't hesitate to stop by our shop and get our help!

JDM Honda Integra Paint Job!

Almost Everything's Car of the Day is not an Accord. The front end looks similar to a mid 90's Accord but this is actually the front end from a "Japanese Domestic Market" or "JDM" Integra. Across the ocean they did not like the round 4 headlight look and demanded a different front end from America's Integra. Many people in America like the JDM front too and will often swap out their US front for the JDM front. In this case the owner had a few other things he wanted to do such as: filling side moulding trim holes, fixing lots of little dings and overall painting of the car! We repainted this Integra with Honda's "Grand Prix White" for the purest, whitest finish we could get, all without breaking this customer's bank!

Get Rid Of That Ugly Peeling Paint!

Almost Everything's Car of the Day is a 1993 Acura Legend.  This blackish/whitish/crusty luxury sedan came into our shop in dire need of a paint job. We started our painting process by first sanding all of the peeling areas down, making them smooth so they would not show through the new paint while also removing all of the rock chips and scratches. Next step was to apply a sealer, a neutral colored primer that provides a solid, even colored surface for the new paint to "bite" onto. Once the sealer was sprayed on, we began to apply the new paint! This car's owner is selling this vehicle. They decided to keep the original color and chose our Enamel paint for an affordable great looking finish!

1996 Mazda 626 Painted!

Almost Everything's Car of the Day is a 1996 Mazda 626. This economical sedan came to our shop with plenty of areas to repair. Its original paint had begun to fail years ago, leaving an unattractive flaky, "oxidized" looking paint surface behind! This is a common issue on cars of this era. We refer to it as delaminating paint, a condition where the car's clear coat peels off of the color beneath. We began by removing all of the problematic peeling areas by sanding them smooth. Next up was a coat of primer sealer which provides an even colored surface for the new paint to adhere to. Finally we repainted the entire exterior of the Mazda with our "Enamel + UV protectant" paint in the car's original black!
