When restoring a vehicle’s finish or deciding to custom paint
your automobile it is imperative that you have a great base to
start from, that’s where we come in
We at Javelin Smash Repairs believe that proper bodywork is the
foundation of any quality paint job. When assessing an automobiles
finish, whether the vehicle is a few years or even half a decade
old, there will be imperfections that will need to be addressed
prior to paint. These can range in complexity from light scratches,
dents, paint bubbling, or even rust. By taking the time to properly
address these and other potential issues prior to paint we can
ensure a professional, long-lasting finish for years to come.
We create clear and easy-to-understand estimates while utilizing
the most reputable suppliers for materials in the industry. Our
unique quality assurance process enables us to meet your expectations
in a timely and cost-effective manner.

remove the paint. In other cases, we use a combination of media blasting
and chemical removal.
If the panels are too thin and can warp during the media blast process,
we remove the paint chemically or mechanically. In the event that paint
removal reveals that there is more damage than originally anticipated,
we immediately notify our customers to explain our findings. Once a
vehicle arrives in our facility, it is:

your automobile. When your vehicle is ready for paint, it is
inspected using a method referred to as a wet down inspection.
This inspection involves a full wet-down inspection, which reveals
any fine ripples and imperfections that may remain even after
multiple stages of sanding. If necessary, the car will be primed
and sanded once again to ensure a proper base in which to work
off of.
