Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if my damage is from the sun?
Signs include: peeling clear coat (white patches), dull/washed-out color, rough texture, and white chalking.
Can it be repaired without repainting everything?
In many cases yes. If damage is only in the clear coat and hasn't reached the base paint, we can restore without repainting.
How to prevent sun damage in the future?
UV-protective wax every 3 months, shade parking, and consider ceramic coating for long-term protection.
