Many auto restoration shops, services and businesses are forgetting about quality when restoring your classic, muscle car, and vintage automobile. We use the best products offered and take our time doing the work correctly. We strip every project to the bare metal, blast all jambs and hard to reach areas of the body. All sheetmetal has the rust cut out and new metal welded in were needed. All dings and dents are worked over and hammered out, very little filler used. Once the sheet metal work is done we then Epoxy prime all the bare metal and let cure. Once the epoxy cures and is scuffed down again, we then apply the filler if any is needed for smaller blemishes left from the sheet metal repair. We will then block the filler and proceede with another rust preventer primer. ( Your muscle car, classic, and vintage car will be protected by 2 types of rust prevention primer.) that is also block sanded when cured. This leaves us with the 2K primer sealer to be applied. (grey) This is also blocked down and applied in several coates as needed. The clean sheet metal has been repaired and protected several times. Plus, we will spray your classic, muscle car or vintage with a top of the line paint, Glasurit base coate clear coate, unless you want something else. The paint is then ultra fined (1000 grit, 1200 grit, 2000 grit pad) then buffed to a mirror shine. Flawless. We can leave a little orange peel like the factory would have or we can give you a mirror shine like a painted piece of glass. The choice is yours.
