Compare car respray quotes from specialist garages in Manchester

Did you know Manchester has fewer cars per head of population than any other city in the UK? However, it has also been named one of the most dangerous places to drive, with almost 7,000 collisions in seven years. The A6 and A56 see a particularly high number of accidents. Plans for a Clean Air Zone in Greater Manchester have been scrapped, for now, so you don't have to worry about paying charges for driving in certain areas.

Driving in cities like Manchester puts extra strain on your car due to long periods of idling and frequent stopping and starting in traffic. The parts most at risk are the brakes, cooling system and transmission. Manoeuvring into tight parking spaces and navigating busy roads can result in scuffed alloys and dented or scraped bodywork while driving over potholes can throw out your suspension. FixMyCar can help you find affordable repairs and maintenance in Manchester for all these crucial components.

Booking a vehicle respray is an excellent way to restore your car's appearance and eliminate unsightly scratches. A car respray can be messy, so using a workshop with a specifically designated respray area is essential for ensuring quality.

First, the mechanic will clean the car before either sanding or entirely stripping the existing paint. All windows, tyres and trimmings will then be covered so they don't get paint on them. You could do this at home, but it may become more expensive, and the outcome will likely be poor unless you're a professional. Before deciding whether to do it yourself, you should look for the best car full body respray quote online.

It's also possible to get one or two panels resprayed instead of the whole car. For example, you could book a car bumper respray or a car bonnet respray, which will cost less money.
