Is a Full Car Repaint Necessary for a 6-Year-Old Vehicle?
1 Answers
If the vehicle's paint damage is not severe, it is generally not recommended to perform a full car repaint. This is because the car will no longer have its original factory paint, and a repaint, no matter how well done, cannot achieve the same effect as the original. Additionally, you should consider future resale value—if the car doesn't have its original paint, the price will be significantly discounted. Below is some relevant information: Metallic Paint: Metallic paint contains metal powder, which gives it a textured appearance under sunlight from different angles. This is why metallic paint is more popular. Pearl Paint: This type also contains additives, but instead of metal powder, it uses pearl powder. As a unique feature for white paint, pearl powder makes the process more complex than other paints, and thus, the price is naturally higher. Standard Paint: Also known as solid color paint, it is cheaper and simpler to apply, but it lacks the same level of gloss.
