Understanding Scratch and Dent Repairs


Scratch and dent repairs involve fixing minor body damage typically caused by minor accidents, hail, or even a rogue shopping cart. This damage may not affect your car's overall functionality but can significantly devalue your vehicle and affect its aesthetic appeal.


How Scratches and Dents Happen


Scratches and dents can happen in numerous ways, from a minor collision, a stone chip flying onto the car while driving, or an errant car door in a crowded parking lot. No matter how careful you are, these minor damages are almost inevitable.


Kingston’s Approach to Scratch and Dent Repair


At Kingston Collision, we approach every scratch and dent with the precision it deserves. We understand that these little blemishes can be a big deal, and we are here to restore the look and value of your vehicle.


Scratch Repair


For surface scratches that haven't penetrated your vehicle's paint layer, we use professional-grade compounds and polishes. This process gently removes a thin layer of the paint’s clear coat, smoothing over the scratch without damaging the underlying layers.


For deeper scratches, we employ a more comprehensive repair process that can involve painting to ensure a flawless finish.


Dent Repair


Our specialists employ different techniques for dent repair, depending on the dent's size and location. We prefer Paintless Dent Repair (PDR) whenever possible as it is faster and preserves the original paintwork. However, if the dent is too severe or in an area that isn't accessible, we will use traditional repair methods, including filling, sanding, and repainting.


Quality Promise


Regardless of the repair method, our team ensures that every repair meets our high-quality standards using state-of-the-art technology and expert skills. We promise quality and stand by our promise with a National Lifetime Warranty on all our services for as long as you own the vehicle.


Restoring the Value of Your Vehicle


Aging and minor accidents can take their toll on a vehicle, but the good news is that a scratch or dent doesn’t have to be a permanent blemish. Our complete scratch and dent repair service will restore your vehicle’s look, protect its resale value, and ensure it continues to provide you with reliable service.
