Scratch & Scuff Repair
Scratch repair for Pasadena drivers
Not every scratch needs paint. If it's only in the clear coat, machine polishing can often take it out. If it's through the color or down to metal, it needs to be repaired and refinished to keep rust out.
We check how deep the scratch goes and tell you the simplest repair that will make it right.

FAQ
Scratch & Scuff Repair questions
Can a scratch be buffed out?
If it's only in the clear coat, often yes. If your fingernail catches in it, it may need paint.
Will a touch-up pen work?
For tiny chips, sometimes. Longer scratches look better repaired properly.
Can you fix a keyed car?
Yes. Depending on depth, we polish, repair or refinish the panel.
