When it comes to cars, it doesn’t matter what is going on under the hood if the outside doesn’t match it. You could have the world’s fastest v8 super charger hidden away inside, but if the paintwork is scratched and the body work is all beat up, you won't get any kudos as you pull away from the lights. It isn’t just about looks either, keeping a car’s body work in good shape is the simplest and most effective way of protecting the inner workings of your car from the grit, rain and rubbish that the British weather throws its way every day.
While mechanics will know what is going on with the chassis and engine block, it takes a different set up entirely to manage the body and panelling of a car. From paint to chrome work, and from the front grill to the rear bumper, the car’s body needs to be looked after by an expert. The best body shop Greater London has to offer is in Kingston Upon Thames. County Coachworks have specialised in body shop work and car body work repairs for the last three decades and they have the experience and skill to deal with all areas of car body shop work.
Why a Body Shop?
A car body shop like Greater London’s own County Coachworks specialises in the repair and maintenance of the body of the car, paintwork and exterior trims. These days cars are serious pieces of kit; gone are the days of popping out dents with a plunger or using duct tape to hold on a loose bumper. Cars have become more complicated, even their body work, and if you want to make sure your car is running properly and safely it is worth getting even small repairs handled by a professional body shop.
Greater London drivers, like drivers up and down the country, are always tempted to find the cheapest way of getting their vehicles fixed, but when it comes to fixing car body work, cheapest does not always mean most cost effective. Paintwork on a car is much more complex than the emulsion you use in your house, and each layer plays a specific role in protecting the car. High street auto-repair shops usually sell touch up pens and spray paint, but these are only really helpful for short term repairs. To make sure that your paintwork is protecting your vehicle properly, you need to make sure you get the advice of a professional body shop. Greater London is no place for a car really, as grit, salt, acidic rain, bird poop and all other manner of nasties can erode the car and cause rust. Only a professional body shop can repair the clear varnish layer on your car body work properly so that the elements don’t start to cause damage where you can’t see it.
