Frequently Asked Questions ...

Below are some questions and answers that are asked quite frequently:

Q. My bonnet and roof on my red car is white and pink faded do i need a respray?

A. Paint fade is known in the professional world as deoxidization which is due to car being exposed to the suns UV rays for a long period of time without being properly protected. It is most common with red cars leaving them looking dull and more pink than red. At RS Repairs we are fully experienced with using machine polishers and with a bit of time and different grades of polish in most cases the paint can be restored to factory finish and in some cases even better. Below is an example:
