Paint

Paint is crucial to the finished look of your vehicle, and thus a vitally important part of the overall process. The best possible result is dependent on the careful matching of colours, the right amount of paint being used, the correct coverage and the careful management of the baking operation.

Our Xpress paint technicians always adhere to the approved repair method – Workshop Information System (WIS) in the case of Mercedes Benz, Electronic Service Manual (ELSA) for the Volkswagen Group, or Thatcham Research Centre’s Escribe. These methods all conform to the PAS 125/BS 10125 British Standard.

All of our painters are specialists because painting is a special skill, which can only be learnt over a number of years. Once again, the approved repair method system will tell the painter the precise combination of paints, the exact quantities and the right baking time required for the perfect match. Preparation is again vital to ensure that the rest of your vehicle is not affected in any way.
