Paint overspray
Quoting an overspray issue depends on many factors that determine the price to repair the problem. In some cases the paint is very light and does not cover the entire vehicle, and that may cost from $600.
Different types of paint bond differently to the vehicle, which can change the process needed to remove the overspray. Two pack epoxy is a very hard paint, cured through adding a hardener. If the car is fully covered, including the moulds, plastics, glass, window trims, lenses, roof racks and all external accessories, the vehicle has to be sighted and assessed.
Cement splatter
Vehicles affected by cement or concrete splatter depend on many different factors that determine the price to repair the problem. If the car is fully covered, including the moulds, plastics, glass, window trims, lenses, roof racks and all external accessories, and especially if lime staining occurs after the cement is removed off the duco, we can deal with the situation. Those vehicles need to be sighted and assessed.
Our biggest clients are construction companies pouring their slabs, where concrete splatter travels over the edge of the building site onto the vehicles below.
Other types of fallout
The same applies to most types of fallout: acid rain, industrial fallout and chemical fallout. All of these problems affect vehicles differently, and those vehicles need to be sighted and evaluated.
