SMART Repairs, what are they I hear you ask?
SMART repair techniques have been developed to help maintain a vehicle in pristine condition without traditional expensive time consuming body shop repairs. It lends itself well to repairing scuffs, chips and scratches that affect the look and value of a vehicle. SMART repair techniques use state of the art techniques and products technicians ensure the highest standards of work, preserving the integrity of the original trim. These techniques have been used by garages for many years, but are still relatively unknown with car owners in 7.3.21Pentwyn .
Carpet repair is quite common as a lot of modern vehicles have fairly thin carpets that get damaged quite easily. Our carpet repair technician is the most experienced in the area. Car manufacturers are having to save weight in an effort to improve fuel efficiency and to make the car environmentally friendly. This results in some parts of the vehicle being less robust. It has become noticeable over the last few years that a lot of vehicle carpets are now much lighter and thinner. The end result is carpets are being damaged more often. It is quite common to see vehicles that are only a few years old with holes or rips in them often just from normal use.

Car seats are expensive and time consuming to replace. Car seat repairs are a cost effective solution offering you expert repairs for all types of typical vehicle seat damage. Most car seat damage can be easily repaired, including cigarette burns, holes from wear and tear or accidental damage. Some patterned seats present a problem – we could not invisibly repair a check or chequered pattern for example. A few modern seat designs seem to include a mesh or net effect over the top of the basic fabric & are very prone to being easily caught by zips etc. This type of car seat repair is also hard to repair.

Leather seats are easily scratched but don’t worry a leather seat repair can help, we have a specialised leather repair technique that allows for invisible repairs to leather car seats. The same system can also be used on vinyl seats, however we can not fix vinyl/leatherette that is breaking up or cracking, a common fault on some modern cars. It is not impossible to tidy them up but it would not be a long lasting solution – so for this type of repair we would highly recommend using a specialised car upholsterer to replace the damaged panel. We can repair discoloured seats or worn seats, small holes and cigarette burns in both leather and vinyl.

Quality Car Body Repairs - What You Need To Know
As an owner of a vintage car that has needed complete restoration, I know the value of do-it-yourself projects. By doing the car repairs or restorations yourself, you can save thousands of dollars. One of the most often needed repairs for vintage cars is the upholstery. Let me give you some easy tips for repairing it yourself. First of all, you should always clean the upholstery before starting any repair projects. Use an upholstery cleaner that is made specifically for the type of upholstery you have and always follow the manufacturers instructions to the letter. I prefer to spot test the cleaner in an out-of-the-way place just to be sure. You will be amazed at what a good cleaning can do for old upholstery! Sometimes it will reveal potential problem areas that you can repair before they become a big problem.
Do some research ahead of time and see if this do it yourself project is something you think you can do. You don't want that vintage muscle car looking awesome on the outside and old as dirt on the inside. With a little work you can get it in top notch shape!
