Good paintwork is invisible — you shouldn't be able to find the panel that was hit. That's the standard our painting side works to: factory colour matched on your actual car (sun-faded paint included), blends into neighbouring panels where honesty demands it, and a queue we tell you about upfront instead of promising miracles.
We speak English, Portuguese, Russian, Ukrainian and Spanish.
Painting carries the longest waiting list in the house: a full exterior respray usually means two to three weeks of queue before the work starts. Smaller jobs move much faster — two or three panels typically run four to five days. And many 'paint jobs' shouldn't be painted at all: a paintless dent repair takes dents out at €80–100 per panel with the factory paint untouched, kerbed wheels refinish at €125, scuffed bumpers repair from €250, and tired headlights restore from €125 — often same-week.
Modern paint codes are a starting point, not an answer — ten years of Algarve sun shifts every colour. We match on the car itself, blend into adjacent panels where the eye would otherwise catch the transition, and check the result in daylight, not just booth light. Metallic, pearl and tri-coat finishes get the extra stages they actually need.
Oxidised, dull, sun-tired lacquer doesn't always need paint: RestorFX at our Loulé centre chemically rebuilds tired clear coat at a fraction of respray cost, and a deep machine polish resurrects more finishes than most owners expect. We measure the paint first and tell you which route your car deserves — repaint is the answer only when it's the honest one.
