Autobody Painting in Fullerton, CA

At Carmona’s Collision, we know that any paint job is only as good as the preparation that precedes it. That’s why the first thing our technicians always start with is a thorough inspection of the vehicle’s paintable surfaces and assess any necessary preparation processes.

If any body work was necessary, after it has been completed, our highly trained paint prep crew will begin their surface prep process. Depending upon what repairs, if any, were performed, this could include grinding and sanding, as well as a thorough cleaning. At each phase of the prep work, they’ll inspect their work to ensure that any irregularities were remedied.

If any filling is needed, it’ll be performed at this point, so as to ensure a smooth, contoured surface. Some “budget” paint shops will skip this step, believing that any minor blemishes will be hidden by the primer and paint.

After the filler has dried, further fine-sanding will finalize this phase of the preparation process. Now, it’s time for a thorough cleaning, to remove any particulate or residues that could affect the paint process.

Next comes masking and the primer application, which assures a lasting chemical bond between the body and the paint. If any finish sanding and repriming is necessary, we’ll do that, too, before moving on to the next step..

A final cleaning and it’s finally time for painting. That’s where the real magic happens, returning your vehicle to its former glory – just at it looked when it rolled off the production line.

Don’t shop by cost only, when selecting a shop to paint your vehicle, whether is post-collision repair or a custom paint job. Look for the highest quality workmanship – that’s where the value is. And at Carmona’s Collision, you can always be sure our highly experienced team will deliver only the best quality to be found.
