When avehicle body gets damaged either because of a collision or due to extreme weather effects like hail, snowfall, or flood, you need to take the help of an auto body shop to bring back its original shape and condition.

Sometimes it could be also a minimal damage like dents or scratches, a crack in the windshield, or a window glass not working. For each of these issues, the auto body shops follow a specific procedure to fix it.

To know these procedures in details we consulted the mechanics of the Twin Falls auto repair center, they showed us the various kinds of repair procedures they follow to repair the different parts of a vehicle.

Dent Repair

One of the most common repair jobs done on a vehicle body is repairing the dents. For this the auto body shops follow either the traditional dent repair or paint less dent repair. The latter is known to be the most popular procedure these days as it takes lesser time and cost to bring the damaged car surface back to normal.

Paint Job

Usually after every kind of repair on the body except for the windshield and windows, the auto body shops will paint your car to make it look as god as new. But even without any apparent damage car owners can go for a paint job for their vehicles to revive its original glory. Every auto body shop will follow a sequence of procedure to paint a car. It will start with scraping out the existing paint, applying premier, then paint and finally allow it to dry and shine.  Some paint jobs also include waxing to add an extra shine to the vehicle body surface.

Frame Straightening

When a vehicle faces a serious collision, it affects not only the people but also the car body which might lose its original shape. At times though things can unfortunately go beyond repair, in most cases these cars can be repaired through frame straightening method.

To know if your car frame can be given back its original shape, the auto body shops will first conduct frame testing and only then can let you know what needs to be done.

Not all auto body shops offer a frame straightening service, but those who do, use a frame alignment machine that runs on hydraulic force to bring back the structure of the vehicle to its original state.

Window and Windshield Repair

If one of the glasses of the vehicle windows stops working or responding, you are already stranded as you can’t leave your car at the parking lot even in your own apartment . you have to call the mechanic who will replace the locks and the switches if it is a power window, and otherwise they will repair the lever that makes it roll upwards and downwards.

A crack in the windshield is even more dangerous. But that can’t be repaired, but only replaced. All you need to do for a windshield repair is finding out a reputable shop that offers a rounded up service including windshield repair like the auto repair service in Twin Falls.
