Car Painting in Merrillville, Indiana

When Do I Need My Car Painted?

When the damage from a collision or road hazard penetrates the paint layer, we recommend a car painting job to restore your vehicle to its former glory. Many incidents can result in the need for new paint, such as hail damage, scratches, dents, and bumper damage. Since we also take care of major collision repairs in-shop, we can usually complete a paint job in the very same visit for your convenience. Once the paint job is complete, it’s important to provide TLC on your own to get the most out of it. We recommend washing your car regularly to rid of any bird droppings, tree sap, and bugs, and waxing it bi-annually for full-coverage protection. Additional measures you can take include parking in the shade to prevent UV exposure (preferably not right under a tree), and avoid driving on sand, salt, or loose gravel.

Professional Car Painting Services

At Lakeside Collision II, our technicians are trained experts when it comes to auto painting. The painting process is complex and requires specific training and equipment. When you bring your car in, our team gets to work repairing, cleaning, sanding, filling, priming, and painting. Each step is involved and requires a certain skill set, but rest assured we can take care of each with ease. Whether it’s a quick touch-up or a full repaint, we use our collision color-matching technology for precise results. It measures the light and hues of your car’s current color and provides us with the exact shade to match. We never rush our car painting services, and we’ll keep you apprised at every step. When it comes down to it, paint matching is an art, and one that we’re masters in.
