SMART Paint Repair
SMART paint repairs are a convenient and cost effective way to fix minor damage to your vehicle without the expense of traditional car body repairs.
Our Fresh Car specialists can use SMART Repair (Small to Medium Area Repair Technology) techniques to restore car paintwork without needing a full body shop respray. This service is perfect for small area damage, including scratches, dents, bumper scuffs, bumper damage, alloy wheel repairs, and paint damage. It helps you maintain your car's value and the overall look of your car body while keeping costs low
How SMART Repair (Small to Medium Area Repair Technology) Works
The car body repairs process starts with inspecting the damaged area of car bodywork. Technicians then prepare the surface and use colour matching technology to achieve an exact factory paint colour match.
Once the new paint repair is applied, a clear lacquer coating is added for durability and a high quality finish. Unlike traditional body repair methods, SMART repair service focuses only on the localised area that needs us to repair the damage, avoiding unnecessary work on the whole panel.
Car Body Repairs and Car Paint Repair Services
Car paint SMART repair specialises in addressing minor damage such as scratches, scrapes and scuffs. Using smart repair paint, technicians restore the original look of your vehicle, often for significantly less cost than a body shop. With a SMART repair, you get a convenient service delivered to the highest standard.
Bumper Scuffs
Car bumpers take a lot of wear and tear, often picking up scuffs from parking mistakes or low speed bumps or collisions.
Bumper scuffs can be fixed quickly with SMART car paint repair techniques, restoring the bumper paint colour and smooth finish of the bumper.
Vandal Scratches
Deep scratches caused by vandalism can be frustrating especially when they result from intentional damage such as keying a car.
Scratches that are deep enough to penetrate the paint layer expose your car's metal body to the elements. This can lead to rust, which can spread and cause structural damage, so it's important to fix car scratches promptly.
SMART car scratch repair fills and refinishes the damaged area, making sure the repaired paintwork matches the rest of the vehicle or car body.
Dent Repairs and Dent Removal
Minor dents can be fixed using SMART repair methods. More significant dents may require specialists to use paintless dent removal (PDR), which smooths out the metal without affecting the car paintwork.
For deeper damage, dent repair involves filling and refurbishment of the damaged area with precise colour matching.
Alloy Wheel Repairs and Alloy Wheel Refurbishment
Alloy wheels are prone to kerb damage, scrapes and corrosion. Alloy wheel repairs and alloy wheel refurbishment restore the original finish, protecting the alloy wheels from further wear or damage.
Paint colour matching can be applied so the alloys match your vehicle specs, or you could choose a new colour altogether. A specialist repair service may be required for diamond-cut alloys.
Machine Polishing
Machine polishing is an important part after the SMART repair process that enhances the overall look and shine of your vehicle's paintwork. It helps remove fine scratches, swirl marks and other imperfections left on the paint.
A machine polish also effectively removes light surface defects that may still be visible after a scratch or dent repair, helping improve the car finish and leaving the paintwork smooth and glossy.
SMART Paintwork Repairs or Traditional Body Shop Repairs
A body shop usually repaints the entire vehicle panel, which drives up both the price and time needed for the repair. SMART repair specialists focus on only the small area of damage, meaning repairs can be completed in just a few hours.
Some SMART scratch repair and paint repair providers like Fresh Car are mobile, which means we bring the bodyshop service to you at home or work without you needing to drive to a garage or use a courtesy car.
With no overheads like a bodyshop, SMART repairs are not only quicker but often more affordable, making them ideal for fixing scuffs, scratches and paint damage faster, so you can be back on the road the same day.
However, a full bodyshop repair service may be necessary if your vehicle has severe damage affecting multiple areas.
Choosing a Reliable SMART Repairer
Selecting the right car paint service provider is important to achieve the highest standard of repair for your vehicle. You can get multiple quotes from different service providers to make sure you get a great price for any paintwork repairs. At Fresh Car, our prices are competitive and often more affordable than those of a bodyshop.
