In the Damage Report process area the vehicle is
inspected, and relevant data is entered into a damage report that determines
initial cost repairs. Additionally, there is often hidden damage that can
not be seen until after the vehicle is disassembled. |
|
After the
damage report is completed, the insurance company review's it. The insurance
company determines if the vehicle is repairable. Then the vehicle begins the
actual repair process. |

preparation is a critical step in the refinishing process of every vehicle.
All panels are prepared for refinishing, then primed and sealed to assure
good adhesion when the final top color and clear coats of refinish are
applied. |

Final moldings and
detail pieces are attached to the vehicle in the reassembly area. All the
vehicle's systems are checked during this process. The vehicle is almost
complete and ready for delivery when it is in this stage. |

During the repair
process the vehicle accumulates dust from the repairs which will be
thoroughly cleaned. It will also be road tested to ensure that everything is
working properly. A final inspection will assure that the vehicle is
completely restored to it's pre-accident condition. |
