What is a paint touch-up?
A paint touch up is a non-bodyshop option to fix paint chips, gouges and deep scratches on your vehicle. Paint touch-ups are a cosmetic fix, and while the repaired area will be drastically improved, you should not expect a touch-up to be completely unnoticeable. In order to repair damaged paint 100% perfectly, panels will likely need body shop repair.
Can you fix paint chips that are already rusted?
If a paint chip has already rusted, it may be best to have the area repaired at a body shop. That said, there are some cases where we can still touch up a rusted area if it is confined to a small area. If you’re unsure whether your paint repair should be done by us or a body shop, please contact a specialist at AODetail for more information.
How long does a paint touch-up take?
At AODetail, paint touch-ups can usually be completed the same day you roll into our shop, and the job itself can be completed in a few hours.
Do I need to wash my car before a paint touch-up?
Yes. We recommend bringing a clean car so that we can evaluate and identify areas that will need to be restored.
