How Our Paint Chip Repair System Works<\/h2>\n\t\t\t

We prep the paint surface to the highest possible standard, cleaning contaminants such as tar, bee pollen, water spots, and other environmental pollution – allowing the surface to be cut and polished to a glass-like deep gloss look.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n

We carefully colour-match OEM-approved paint, and apply it to the panel using a unique airbrush application system. SmartChip\u00ae provides a durable, long-lasting paint finish, protecting the damaged area and preserving the look and feel at a fraction of the time or cost of traditional repairs.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n

The excess paint (overspray) is removed from the surface using our patented Formula184. This is what sets our system apart, and is specially designed to cure the paint into the stone chip leaving a deep fill, high shine finish that repairs as close to the original factory finish you fell in love with.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/section>\n
