AUTO BODY & PAINT

When restoring a vehicle’s finish or deciding to custom paint your automobile it is imperative that you have a great base to start from, that’s where we come in. At Mineola, our technicians are classic auto restoration specialists. We know that proper bodywork is the foundation of any quality paint job. When assessing an automobiles finish, whether the vehicle is a few years or even half a decade old, there will be imperfections that will need to be addressed prior to paint. These can range in complexity from light scratches, dents, paint bubbling, or even rust. By taking the time to properly address these and other potential issues prior to paint we can ensure a professional, long-lasting finish for years to come.

We create clear and easy-to-understand estimates while utilizing the most reputable suppliers for materials in the industry. Our unique quality assurance process enables us to meet your expectations in a timely and cost-effective manner.

In order to reveal any hidden damage, and ensure a solid foundation for new paint to adhere to, all of the old paint must first be removed. To accomplish this, we employ several paint removal techniques depending on the extent of any visible damage, as well as the integrity of the panels themselves. In some cases, we media blast the entire vehicle to remove the paint. In other cases, we use a combination of media blasting and chemical removal.

If the panels are too thin and can warp during the media blast process, we remove the paint chemically or mechanically. In the event that paint removal reveals that there is more damage than originally anticipated, we immediately notify our customers to explain our findings.


Once a vehicle arrives in our facility, it is:

  • Disassembled, and the parts, inspected, cataloged and stored
  • Inspected on our frame rack to determine the extent of repair required for proper body panel fitment
  • Stripped and media blasted to bare metal
  • Etch-primed to protect the bare steel
  • Repaired free of rust and dents
  • Block-sanded smooth
  • Primed and finished
  • Critiqued for perfect panel fitment
  • Inspected and sent to our paint department

Disassembly & Assembly

Prior to dis-assembly all projects are thoroughly photographed for future reference. By properly documenting your vehicle we are able to map out the course of action for your vehicle’s re assembly. This detailed process is integral to ensure that the reassembly process goes smooth and in a timely fashion.

Once properly photographed, the vehicle is then carefully taken apart, while noting any problems along the way. Parts and sub assemblies are inspected and shelved in a dedicated area specific only to your vehicle.

Each vehicle is carefully disassembled and all parts are categorized and labeled for that specific part. Parts are then inspected for repair, re-plating, painting, or replacement to restore the complete vehicle to its original like new state. If a part is not readily available and needs to be replaced we will attempt to locate one. If we cannot then we may fabricate any part needed during assembly.

During our dis-assembly and reassembly process, parts for each restoration project are labeled and shelved. From there they are cleaned and prepared for re-assembly. Detailed information is maintained at all times to ensure quality restoration of each vehicle and accountability for each part.

CLIENT REVIEW

These guys are the best. Took a nail out of my tire and plugged it up for only $20, and very graciously didn’t charge me extra, even though I accidentally told them the wrong tire so they wasted 45 min looking for the nail 😭🙏 …
