Restoring Your Ride Completely from Start to Finish

Full Vehicle Paint and Body Restoration Services in Dekalb, IL

All Vehicles. All Services. Paint and Body Work at Apex Auto Restoration

Auto detailing, ceramic coatings, and paint correction aside, vehicles of all kinds require so much more to stay ahead of the functional and aesthetic disruptions caused by daily driving. Some cars experience paint chips or stains requiring more in-depth repair that paint correction cannot facilitate while others need speciality fiberglass and metal panels applied to them.

  • Metal polishing

Frequently Asked Questions About Auto Painting Services

  • If I have some paint damage, do I have to have my whole car repainted?

    You do not! As is typical with auto body work and painting services, we at Apex Auto Restoration will color match seamlessly to only paint the affected areas that need our attention. Gone are the days where one issue with your finish and the rest of the car, truck, or SUV needs to be fully painted to avoid some type of unevenness in the finish.

  • What part of auto painting services takes the most time?

    The prep and drying processes are really where the time involved in repainting your automobile comes to a head. We are extensively trained on our PPG and Axalta products, as are we highly experienced in paint matching, so the actual painting process is extremely focused and in some cases, quick. Letting our paintwork dry and stripping any old paint or finish from a surface prior to starting takes a bit of time, so we estimate a couple days to complete.

  • Should I install a ceramic coating following a repaint job?

    It is ALWAYS the right time for a professional paint protection package following any kind of specialty detailing service! Our SB3 Ceramic Coating packages not only help prevent stains and general degradation from happening on those newly repainted surfaces of your automobile, but they will actually enhance the gloss and sparkle of them with expert precision! Repainting a panel on your ride is the prime opportunity to take measures in elevating your ride’s aesthetic.

  • Is color matching really easy to do?

    The best way we put it - It is easy to do because of the extensive experience and training we have in both our certified car paint products AND the auto repainting process itself! We make it look simple, but with that expertise, we at Apex Auto Restoration understand exactly what paint the make and model you bring us requires, and thus expertly mix a paint combination that flawlessly blends with its surrounding color and texture.
