Step 1: The vehicle is first striped or media blasted to bare metal, or rough sanded according to what each vehicle requires. This will ensure no hidden damage from previous repairs. This also makes for a great base for all other processes to adhere too. |
|
Step 2: After the body has been striped, all sheet metal imperfections including rust or damage will be repaired. Then a coat of etching primer or epoxy primer will be applied to seal the metal from any further corrosion. This provides a good base for the final bodywork. |
|
Step 3: In this step, premium-grade body filler is used, if needed, to insure a smooth and straight body. |
|
Step 4: A coat of urethane primer is then used to seal all of the bodywork. The vehicle will be block sanded and re-primed as needed to prepare the body for paint. |
|
Step 5: High quality paint mixed to perfection is applied to the body in our state of the art down draft paint booth. This makes for the least amount of contaminates or "trash" in the final product. |
|
Step 6: After the base coat has cured, then a coat of clear is added. This is done in multiple layers for that deep wet appearance. This is also what protects your vehicles color from sun damage, UV rays, and fading. |
|
Step 7: The final stage is to wet sand and buff to a mirror finish. All that is left is to stand back and enjoy your new paint job! |
