The Repair

What Is Mobile Scratch Repair?

Not all scratches are equal. A clear coat scratch sits in the outermost protective layer and can often be polished out or lightly refinished without a full repaint. A base coat or primer scratch cuts deeper, exposing bare metal or plastic that will rust or fade without proper treatment. ACS technicians assess the scratch depth on-site and apply the right process: polishing, spot refinish, or full panel color matching using PPG's professional paint system.

The entire repair happens at your location, home, office, or parking lot. Darren brings all the equipment needed to sand, prep, prime where necessary, and spray a factory-matched finish on-site. You don't drop your car off. You don't wait days. Most scratch repairs are completed in a few hours with a result that blends seamlessly with the surrounding paint.
