When and Where To Get Your Car Painted

Why Choose Us?

Zimbrick Body Shop has a proud history of repairing paint damage since 1965. Being part of the community of Madison, WI, for over half a century, we’ve built a reputation for customer service and expert repairs. We use state-of-the-art technology and expert technicians to fix any level of paint damage you need.

Painting isn’t always about repairing damage, it can just be a refresh for your paint. The fall season is typically the best time to refresh your paint at our car paint shop, as it provides enhanced protection against Wisconsin winters before they start. 

This is the procedure we use to repair or refresh your car’s paint:

Color Prep

Your car has a uniform color, and it’s essential to duplicate the color exactly. Even the slightest amount of extra color while blending the paint will stand out. We use computer technology to duplicate the exact shade on your car so the repair will be indistinguishable from the original coat. Duplicating colors is a relatively quick process.

Primer and Sealant

Once the color is ready, we apply primer over the area to be painted. The primer provides a perfect surface for bonding the paint to the metal and protecting the metal from water.

Once the primer is dry, we then apply a high-quality sealant. The sealant protects the paint from environmental damage.

Base Coat

The next step is applying the base coat. We only use environmentally-friendly base coats, as they’re safe and non-toxic. The base coat will be the exact color of your car.

Polyurethane Coat

Once the base coat is dry, we follow up with a clear polyurethane coat. This coat serves to protect the color and provides a smooth sheen.

Polish

In this final step, we use high-quality polish to provide a glossy finish and an additional level of protection for your paint.
