Scratch & Scuff Repair
The Right Fix Depends on the Depth
Not every scratch needs a respray. Light marks in the clear coat can often be polished out, while deeper scratches through to primer or metal need filling and refinishing.
We’ll check how deep the damage goes and recommend the least invasive repair that gives a good result.

Scratch & Scuff Repair Questions
Can a scratch be polished out?
If it’s only in the clear coat, often yes. If you can catch it with a fingernail, it usually needs refinishing.
Will I see where the repair was done?
We blend repairs into the surrounding paint so the transition isn’t noticeable.
Do you fix stone chips?
Yes. Chips are cleaned and touched up, or refinished if there are many in one area.
