What we repair
The four types of damage we repair
We focus on four common types of cosmetic damage and repair them at your home or workplace, to an independently audited standard.
Panel scratch repair
Keyed doors, car-park scrapes and trolley marks colour-matched back to the manufacturer's original paint code.
30,754 completed in 2023
Bumper scuff restoration
Kerbed and scuffed bumpers rebuilt, refinished and lacquered so the repair disappears into the surrounding panel.
22,225 completed in 2023
Panel dent removal
Car-park dings and shopping-trolley dents removed using manufacturer-approved techniques.
6,074 completed in 2023
Wing mirror cover replacement
Cracked or missing mirror covers replaced and painted to match - usually for much less than a whole new mirror.
461 completed in 2023
The mobile unit
A body shop that drives to your door
Each technician works from a self-contained mobile unit with everything needed for the repair, including colour matching and extraction to capture overspray, set up on your driveway or in a workplace car park.
It means no courtesy car, no week without your vehicle, and no trips to drop off and collect the car.

The process
How a Shine! repair works
Four steps from damaged panel to finished car - without ever driving to a body shop.
-
01
Send us photos
Upload your registration and two photos of each damaged area - one close up, one from a couple of metres back so we can judge the panel and the light.
-
02
Get a fixed price
We assess the damage and email a fixed quote. No call-out charge, and the price we quote is the price you pay.
-
03
We come to you
Choose a date and a location - your driveway, your street, your workplace car park. The technician arrives fully equipped and self-contained.
-
04
Guaranteed while you own it
Most repairs are finished in a single visit. Every one is guaranteed for as long as you own the vehicle.

Questions
Frequently asked questions
Can't find what you need? See all our FAQs on booking, guarantees and the repair day, or get in touch.
Do I need to take my car anywhere?
No. Our technicians carry out the repair at a location of your choice - your driveway, your street or your workplace car park - from a fully equipped mobile unit.
How long does a repair take?
Most repairs are completed in a single visit. Larger or multi-panel jobs occasionally need longer, and we will tell you that at the quoting stage rather than on the day.
Will the repair invalidate my paint warranty?
No. We work directly with Aston Martin, Ford, Mercedes-Benz, Lexus, Toyota and Vauxhall to ensure our methods and materials meet their requirements, so a Shine! repair does not invalidate a manufacturer paint warranty.
How closely will the colour match?
We match the colour to your car's paint, allowing for any fading with age, and blend it into the surrounding panel so there's no visible join.
What does the guarantee cover?
Every repair is guaranteed for as long as you own the vehicle. If the repair itself fails - lifting, flaking or colour drift - we come back and put it right at no charge.
Does bad weather stop the work?
Not usually. Our technicians can work under cover around the repair area, and we only reschedule in very bad weather - in which case we'll let you know as early as we can.
