ChipsAway repair most minor cosmetic car bodywork damage and interior trim.  Chipsaway Louis Wan specialises in smart repairs to :

  • Bumper Scuffs and Scratches - ChipsAway repair common car parking damage from other cars, brick walls, posts etc.  Depending on the damage the areas are rubbed down, filled if necessary to remove all scratches, painted and re-lacquered to an as new appearance.
  • Vandal and Accidental Scratches  - the success of these depends on the depth, severity, colour and location.  Generally darker colours are easier to remove invisibly.  The trickiest aspects of dark colours is losing the lacquer edge.   Thanks to ChipsAways' new Aquaclear water based paint technology, silvers and light metallics are no longer a problem.  A proximity to a curve or bodyline will assist to "lose the repair".  As a general rule spray repairs are not normally performed on large flat panels  such as the bonnet, roof or boot.  In the vast majority of cases the repairs are invisible and are indistinguishable. 
  • Paintless Dent Removal (PDR) - Using the most highly skilled Dent Technician with over 15 years of PDR experience and 11 years of bodyshop experience, Chipsaway Louis Wan offers the best in PDR expertise.  Common door dinks, larger dents in doors, dents on bonnets, roofs and boot lids and faces are removed invisibly and without painting.  We have saved our customers, hundreds of pounds through repairing panels which otherwise would need replacing in traditional bodyshop repair processes.  It pays to contact us first.  Even if we can't help you, we will always point you in the direction of someone who can.
  • Combination of Paintless Dent Removal and Smart Paint Repair -  The ultimate repair.  Combining skills, we eliminate in the majority of cases the need for filler and repair a very small local area.  By removing the dent using metal rods to massage it out from behind, the paint (and rust proofing ) is left intact and original.  Traditionally in dent repairs the area is ground down to bare metal, and either pulled using welded studs or filled depending on the depth and size of the dent.  The problem with this method is that a large area of the galvanizing and rust protection is lost and paint is needed to be applied to an even larger area. 
  • Alloy Wheel repairs -  Chipsaway Louis Wan can repair most painted alloy rim damage caused by kerbing.  The area is ground down, filled with special metallic filler if necessary, smoothed and repainted with matching paint, then re-lacquered to an as new finish.  ChipsAway perform the repairs with the wheels on the tyre and attached to the vehicle. 
  • Interior trim repairs - ChipsAway can repair and restore cigarette burns to leather and velour upholstery, rips and holes in leather seats and general wear and tear damage.
  • Stone chips  -  ChipsAway can touch in stone chip damage to any part of the car to provide a barrier to water and salt ingress ultimately leading to rust and devaluaing your second most valuable asset.  Despite the name ChipsAway however, stone chips are a smaller part of our business and are usually not entirely invisible but in the vast majority of cases greatly improve the appearance of them.  They serve to take your eye off them and provide peace of mind that they are protected.   Stone chip repairs are excluded from our standard two year guarantee.
