Frequently asked questions
Can a scratch be repaired without respraying the panel?
If it has not gone through to primer, often yes. Deeper scratches usually need filling and blending, which a workshop can judge from clear photos.
Will the new paint match my car exactly?
A good body shop mixes to your car’s paint code and blends into adjacent panels so the repair is invisible. Ask whether they blend or just paint the single panel.
