Dallas Area Paint Repair/Detailer

dardeca · 06-28-2011, 01:58 PM

Any recommendations on a top notch paint repair/detailer in the Dallas area? I've got a couple of rock chips that I'd like to try and get repaired as well as get a good exterior detail.

Thanks in advance!

There's an independent guy that does work at Autoscope Park Cities. Steve Fordham is the guy to talk to at Autoscope. There's more detail here: http://www.dfwautoclub.com/forums/showpost.php?p=57739&postcount=3 .

I haven't used this guy myself or seen his work, but with Steve saying he's ok, I'm sure he is.

Steve Fordham for all things mechanical repair without a doubt.

For paint and body there's only one choice. Ron at Details, ltd in Addison.

My car went in for pdr due to hail damage and they had to do the conventional method on some areas due to dents being on metal creases. Sterling Auto Body did a phenomenal job... took off all molding and did not just paint to the edge of the panel they painted down into the car. They removed everything so they could hide the masking lines and made the edges seem like painted from factory. This was the sterling auto body in Irving, tx. Talk to a guy named Chris.. he always called back and he let me know what was going on every step of the way. As far as I could see there was no overspray either.
