Auto Paint Refinishing

At McCloskey Appearance Center, our repair paint and refinishing services are designed to restore the pristine look of your vehicle with precision and care. When it comes to repairing paint and refinishing on cars, the process begins with meticulous surface preparation. This includes thoroughly cleaning and sanding the damaged area to ensure a flawless base for the new paint. High-quality primers are then applied to guarantee strong adhesion and block out any old stains, providing a consistent foundation.

The actual painting process involves our skilled technicians expertly matching your car's original color using advanced color-matching technology, applying multiple layers to achieve perfect coverage and hue. A durable clear coat is added to protect the new paint job from scratches and UV rays, enhancing the paint's gloss and longevity. Finally, the surface is polished to a high shine, ensuring a smooth and gleaming finish.

Windshield Replacement FAQs

How much does it cost to replace a windshield?

The cost of replacing a windshield can vary depending on many factors, including the type of vehicle, the location of the damage and who is performing the work.

On average, a windshield replacement can cost between $200 and $400. However, the cost can be higher depending on the factors mentioned above.

Comprehensive coverage typically covers windshield replacement, but there may be a deductible. Some insurance companies also offer optional full glass coverage, which can waive the entire cost of windshield replacement.

What are the dos and don'ts after windshield replacement?

To ensure your new windshield sets correctly, wait at least an hour before driving to allow the adhesive to cure. Keep a window slightly open for the first few days to balance pressure changes and maintain the retention tape to protect the seal. Avoid car washes and any exposure to extreme temperatures or high pressures during the initial period. Adhering to these steps, along with any specific directions from your technician, will produce the best results.

Do you need to calibrate windshield cameras and laser sensors after windshield replacement?

Installing a new windshield often necessitates calibration, particularly if your vehicle includes integrated cameras and advanced safety systems. While replacing the glass and reattaching cameras might seem sufficient, professional calibration is essential to ensure that the vehicle's safety features continue to function accurately. Proper calibration is crucial for the effectiveness and safety of your vehicle.
