Detailers get asked for touch up service constantly from their customers, but the most they can do is shrug their shoulders if they don't have a paint touch up system.


A pro quality paint touch up system allows detailers to answer this request with a professional quality service that customers love. The system allows them to apply a precise amount of color matching paint to the chips and scratches on the customers' cars.


4 reasons it makes good sense to add scratch and chip repair to your detail shop or automotive cosmetic repair business (paintless dent repair, vinyl and leather repair, windshield repair, clear bra installation, and window tinters are all excellent candidates as well):


First, customers request it every day. They care about their cars enough to pay for professional detailing services, and they are willing to pay for professional touch up. They want their cars to be as free of flaws as possible, and chips/scratches are permanent flaws that they are aware of and find irritating.


Second, touch up service is very profitable. An average touch up job takes about 15 minutes to perform at a cost of $35. Costs are minimal: just 20 drops of paint, some cleaning thinner, and a small paper cup. Costs might only be 5% per job!


Paint touch up is easy to learn. The fundamentals of a repair are relatively simple: choose a matching color of paint, apply a minimal amount of paint to the chips and scratches, and clean your repair materials. You can justify a professional price for your repairs by minimizing the amount of paint you apply. Remember, customers can get matching paint of their own. They just can't apply it neatly with the oversized brushes that come with their "off the shelf" paint. If you can do a neater job than they every could with their own attempts, you will have a happy customer. Among all the "add on" services (paintless dent repair, vinyl/leather repair, windshield chip repair), paint touch up is the simplest to learn.


Finally, touch up is an easy process to teach to your employees. In an hour or two, they can learn how to perform professional repairs. And unlike vinyl/leather repair and paintless dent repair, there is no chance of your employee damaging the customers' car. Just wipe off the paint if you get a bad repair!
