How Long Does Door Panel Metal Repair Usually Take?

[DelAmy]

Door panel metal repair generally takes about 5 hours. Here is some extended information: 1. Heating process is applied during metal repair: After the vehicle undergoes metal repair, the outer zinc coating will be damaged. If a heating process is applied during the repair, the metal material will undergo annealing, reducing both its strength and hardness. In the event of a subsequent collision, the safety of the vehicle's occupants cannot be guaranteed. 2. Unprofessional repair: After metal repair, due to the unprofessional nature of the repair, the surface can easily become uneven. Over time, this may lead to cracking, dents, and other issues, affecting the car's appearance. 3. Impact on resale value: Both metal repair and full-body repainting will affect the vehicle's resale value because the paint will not match the original factory finish, and a repaint cannot achieve the same effect as the original factory paint.
