“Green” Benefits of Paintless Dent Removal

When you choose a paintless dent removal company to repair the dings and dents in your car’s body, you are eliminating the need for harsh chemicals. Traditional paint and body shops rely on auto paint, sanding materials, and body fillers to make your car look like new. All of these materials are made of harsh chemicals that are hazardous to dispose of and require energy to both manufacture and utilize. The chemicals in auto paint – whether it is an activator, clearcoat, paint thinner, basecoat, or primer – contain everything from barium sulfate to titanium dioxide, which are non-organic solvents that can pose a risk to individuals and the environment.

Paintless dent removal companies skip this harmful step by working with what is already there – your car’s metal panels – to gently massage and work the shape of your car back to its flawless condition. The process is so mild that there’s no need to use touch-up paint to finish the job, giving you an effective and safe alternative.

“Green” Benefits of Mobile Repair Services

When you choose paintless dent removal in addition to mobile services, you get an even lower environmental impact. When you make an appointment at a traditional body shop, you typically have to get in your car, drive it to the site, and have yet another person pick you up to take you where you need to go. You then have to repeat the same steps when your car is finished. When you add up all the people who get dent removal services in a single year, this adds up to a substantial amount of unnecessary gas consumption.

Mobile paintless dent removal services like the ones offered by Dings Plus of San Jose, CA streamline this process to use the least amount of environmental impact possible. By coming to your home or office, the dent removal specialists at Dings Plus can combine several repairs into a single journey – meaning that not only are you offered great service on your schedule, but you’re also reducing the overall amount of drive time for everyone involved. As far as the environment is concerned, it is a win-win situation.

Whether you are just interested in re-spraying a small area to cover up some paint chips, or want to treat your car to a custom paint job that will let you enjoy envious stares from every pedestrian you pass, you will need to follow a few basic rules, and have the right tools to hand in order to carry out the work to a high standard.

The first thing to mention about auto paint jobs is that you should always work in a well ventilated area. Paint fumes can include a number of solvents that can leave you feeling light headed and even poison you if you inhale them, so make sure there is free passage of air through your work shop when you are painting. You should also wear a respirator mask during painting or preparation to avoid inhaling any paint and loose dust that you release.

To get the best effects when painting, you also need to make sure that you are able to keep dust to a minimum. You can achieve a good environment by hanging sheets from floor to ceiling in the area where you are working, and wearing overalls. You should also vacuum clean the area where you are painting at the beginning of every session.

When you apply auto body paint, the main thing is to get a good even finish that looks good, and the key to getting a good finish is having a good start. Preparation is everything in paining. Get it right, and you will be able to enjoy a fantastic smooth finish that will last for years and look great, skimp on your preparation, and your finish will look shabby straight away, and then get worse over time.

Before you paint, you need to strip off the old paint job. You can do this with a solvent based paint remover, or do it the hard way by sanding back the panels to bare metal using a sander. Whichever method you choose, you need to make sure that you have a very smooth base. To achieve this, use the finest grade abrasive paper available, and be prepared to put serious time into the job.

Once you are satisfied with your base, you can start applying the primer. Use a HLVP spray gun connected to an air compressor, as this is much more even than an aerosol, and will be much cheaper in the long run. You should use long sweeping strokes in a single direction to get a good base to paint onto. After every coat, allow the paint to dry, and then sand it back to a smooth surface. Then apply the next coat in strokes that go at 90 degrees to the previous layer, as this will produce an even color.

There are two types of auto paint that you can use on a car, cellulose based and Two Pack auto paint. Most painters now use Two Pack because it gives a better finish, and metallic colors are available, whereas cellulose paint can be tricky to deal with, and is best used on classic cars where you are trying to recapture an older style.

As with the primer, you should apply the auto paint in coats, spraying in a single direction, then sanding back to a fine surface to remove any imperfections, before applying the next layer at right angles to the previous one.

In between coats, it is imperative to clean the nozzles on your HVLP spray gun, as otherwise, small flakes of dried paint can be caught up in the spray and cause imperfections that will spoil the final effect.

Once you are satisfied that you have got a good covering and applied enough coats of auto body paint to create an excellent finish, apply one more coat for best effects, allow it to dry, and then sand back for a smooth finish. You should leave the paint to dry completely for 24 hours and then apply a wax polish to the whole body in order to protect your new paint job and give it a shine that will certainly catch the attention of anyone you pass on the road.

Where do all of us Brits look? where do we know where to look? The majority of people see daily adverts on on freeview or tv and the majority try the site bing advertised. Unfortunately 99% of people don’t know about the hidden COSTS that is carried out on the comparison site itself. In 99% of every Quotation the buyer can make much better savings by following a few simple steps.

It’s a fact the UK comparison sites (ie. moneysupermarket make in excess of 30 million pounds plus a year from this what I call the ‘comparison site scam’. Every purchase earns them between 40 and 100 pounds every time someone buys an gas policy via there site? This is money that you can get direct instead of it going into the pockets of the comparison site.

Let us take an example and look at ‘which Switch’ they had well over one million customers last year, so take that number and an average of a minimum 10% of people get their GasSupplier through this comparison site that would give 100,000 hidden payments to the website owner at between 40-100 UK pounds. Let take an average of 50 pounds as a round number..

This gives them a profit of at least 15 million pounds alone from car insurance. This number will be much higher in reality.

Imaging though if the person in the street
like you and me can get this undercover cash for ourselves.

Imaging claiming this payment on your other house insurance and electric energy bills as well..

When it comes to the energy bills SCAM what they do is worth even more money and you can also claim this up to 4 times a year very very easily and it only takes a few minutes

Imagine if you could also save on all your weekly shopping and add in vouchers and discounts for things such as books and laptops.

Imaging getting a excellent deal and as a consequence of following some additional simple steps you receive back an additional 10% off the price? This is what I personally do every single time I purchase anything.

At last! The whole unbiased truth about saving £1000s a Year exposed without the use of comparison sites.
