For some people, one of the most important things about their car or truck is its appearance. Unfortunately, on today’s busy roads there is a very good chance of a collision. Even a minor accident can require an experienced Auto Body Shop in Winchester VA, to handle the damage. A really serious wreck can result in major repair and require days worth of work to eliminate all the problems. In many cases, the body damage is just the beginning.
An accident can do all sorts of damage to an automobile. At the speeds that most incidents occur, the metal of a car or truck can swiftly crumple and bend. Plastic handles the impact even worse, and most plastic pieces are quickly torn away or left hanging loosely. One of the most common types of vehicle damage is a front end collision. When the front of a car is smashed, the damage can extend to the hood, fenders, bumper and spoiler. A really severe front end collision can even send shock waves into the windshield causing more repairs.
An Auto Body Shop in Winchester VA, can do more than simply repairing the damage from an accident. A quality paint job can raise the value of just about any vehicle. Combine that with an expert repair to a dent or filling in a hole from rust, and that old car just might be worth a little more in trade-in value. Of course, once the job is finished, the sight of the vehicle might just might stir some old memories that make it worth keeping around.
Not all body work requires a lot of effort. Certain types of damage can actually be repaired by simply popping the dent away. These are typically small dents made from minor collisions. It is possible to tell if this sort of problem exists because the metal will be pushed in, but the paint won’t be cracked or the metal won’t have a crease. This sort of repair is known as a paintless dent repair because no holes are put into the metal and the repair is quick and easy. Part of the reason that this method of repair is possible is the type of automotive paint used on modern cars.
