Where to Go for Quick Car Paint Touch-Up?
1 Answers
There are mainly two types of paint touch-up shops: professional 4S stores and premium car beauty shops. Details are as follows: Professional 4S Stores: The first place that comes to mind for paint touch-up after a car gets scratched is a 4S store. However, since the work is done in a standard spray-painting workshop using the same color codes provided by the manufacturer, along with renowned brand paints, professional techniques, and a complete set of equipment including heating, airflow regulation, ventilation systems, paint isolation filters, carbon filters, suction devices, and pressure gauges, the cost tends to be quite high. Premium Car Beauty Shops: The second option might be a nearby premium car beauty shop. Compared to 4S stores, the paint touch-up environment here is less advanced. The paints used may not perfectly match the car's original color, and the experience level of the paint technicians varies, as do their repair skills and equipment. Car paints are generally baking paints. After the car undergoes processes like welding in the workshop, the painting begins. First, the primer is sprayed by immersing the bare car body into a paint tank. After removal, the primer is baked at 200 degrees. Then, the car is sent to a dust-free workshop where the topcoat is applied via electrostatic spraying, followed by another 200-degree baking. Finally, a layer of clear coat is added.
