Got a paint chip in my drivers door and Graham assisted me with the repair. They have Carpro detailing products in stock and will take the time to explain the products and how to use them.

Sent a picture of the damage to 2 places for quotes: (1) a body shop that quoted me $1600, (2) Arete, who said come on in and we'll see if we can just buff it out. SO glad I went with options 2! Do yourself a favor and go to Arete before committing to costly (and probably unnecessary) body work! Thanks again! ✨️
