Mechanic removing a scratch.jpgWhen you drive a beautiful Mazda car, you probably want to keep it looking as good as possible. This is why it can be aggravating when you spot a scratch. Fortunately, with the right Mazda repairs, our service technicians can generally take care of scratches pretty easily. Here you’ll learn about the different types of scratches and how our service center can repair them.

Clear Coat

The clear coat is the top layer of your car, and it’s designed to protect the paint job. When this gets scratched, it’s typically not a very big deal, as it’s usually a superficial blemish. These types of scratches can often be fixed with a cloth or sandpaper.

Paint

The paint is the layer directly below the clear coat. This scratch takes a bit more effort to fix. Our team will apply scratch remover, and then apply paint and a clear coat on top.

Primer/Deep

When scratches are very deep, you’ll be able to see the metal of the car’s body. It’s important to bring your car to our service center if you get a primer scratch since delaying could allow time for rust to form. Fixing these scratches can be a big project since our technicians will need to sandpaper the scratch, fix any dents if needed, and apply primer, paint, and a clear coat.
