Opel/Vauxhall Vehicle respray
Does My Opel/Vauxhall Need a Paint Respray and What's Involved?
If your Opel/Vauxhall has a peeling clear coat, faded paintwork or you are looking to change the colour of your Opel/Vauxhall, a partial or full respray will be the best option to bring your Opel/Vauxhall back to life or personalise it to your taste.
A vehicle respray is usually undertaken when certain panels are to be painted the same colour as the rest of the car, or the entire Opel/Vauxhall is changing colour, although changing colour can be a very in-depth process depending on the level of colour change and the style of paint to be used.
The way a vehicle respray is carried out is determined by the panels requiring a respray, or if your Opel/Vauxhall is being resprayed completely. If only certain panels are being resprayed, these will either be removed from your Opel/Vauxhall or masked off to prevent any overspray on non-damaged panels.
The panels will then be sanded down before a fresh coat of primer, colour and clear coat are applied, making your Opel/Vauxhall just like new.
If your Opel/Vauxhall requires a full respray, it will need to be disassembled before any work is carried out. This includes removing the engine if you are having the engine bay of your Opel/Vauxhall resprayed in the new colour. Every panel will be sanded down and any dents repaired before a new layer of primer is added to your Opel/Vauxhall.
Depending on if you are keeping your Opel/Vauxhall’s original colour, or changing it for something completely different, the new colour will be applied before being covered in a fresh covering of clear coat to keep your Opel/Vauxhall's new paintwork protected from the elements, as well as looking glossy.
Most specialist body repair shops offer respray services, whether it be for panels or a full vehicle respray on your Opel/Vauxhall. If you have an older Opel/Vauxhall or are looking for a certain finish, a restoration centre will be your best option to have a respray carried out. They will be able to guide you on every step of the process ensuring your Opel/Vauxhall comes out looking better than new!
