How Many Years Can a Car's Putty and Repainting Last After Repair?
1 Answers
It depends on the quality of the putty and the technician's skill. If high-quality putty is used and the technician is highly skilled, it can last for more than 5 years. However, if the putty is too thick or the technician's skill is poor, cracking may occur within as little as half a year. Since putty contains moisture, environmental temperature also affects its stability. Therefore, it is advisable to seek professional repair shops for painting to avoid bigger issues later. Below are the reasons why putty is needed before painting: 1. To fill small dents on the body panels: preventing uneven surfaces or bubbles after painting. 2. To enhance the vehicle's appearance: making its shape look better.
