Don't let pollen ruin your paint -- or your sinuses! Here’s how to keep your ride fresh and clean: ? Wash often – Pollen can damage your paint if left too long. ? Wax up – A good wax makes it harder for pollen to stick. ? Swap your cabin air filter – Breathe clean, not sneezy! ? Rinse before wiping – Dry wiping = scratches. No thanks. ? Vacuum inside – Pollen isn’t just outside—keep your interior fresh, too. Keep your car (and your allergies) in check this season! #pollen #pollenseason #rolllikenothingeverhappened #bodyshop #tipsandtricks #tips #themoreyouknow

Your hood takes the most impact while you drive—think of it as your car’s personal shield. Here’s why chips happen so easily: ?? Highway Hazards – Rocks, road debris, and even sand kicked up by other cars are like tiny missiles aimed straight at your paint. ?? Speed + Impact = Ouch – At high speeds, even the smallest pebble can leave a mark. Imagine getting hit with a rock while riding a bike—yeah, it’s kinda like that. ???? ?? Thin Paint Layers – Modern cars have thinner paint and clear coat than older models, making them more vulnerable. ?? Weather Woes – Sun, rain, and winter salt weaken your paint over time, making chips more likely. How to Protect Your Hood? ? Paint Protection Film (PPF) – A thin, invisible shield for your paint. ? Ceramic coating – Adds a slick, protective layer. ? Stay back! – Give trucks and fast-moving cars some space. Got hood chips? Don’t ignore them! Once exposed, metal can rust fast. A quick fix now saves bigger headaches later, and we're happy to help. #rockchips #hoods #themoreyouknow #paint #painter #refinish #chips #rust #ppf #paintprotectionfilm #ceramic #ceramiccoating #rolllikenothingeverhappened

We highlight our refinish technicians often, but our body men are just as important to the collision repair process. Their work is a bit more detail-oriented and slower-paced, making it harder to capture those eye-catching action shots—but that doesn’t mean their impact goes unnoticed. Here’s one of our talented techs carefully sanding a repair, getting it perfectly prepped to send to the paint department. It’s a step that requires skill and patience, and when it's done right, the final result is nothing short of flawless. #bts #behindthescenes #bodytech #bodytechnician #autobody #paintandbody #bestinclass #rolllikenothingeverhappened

The Science Behind Pearl & Metallic Paints: Did you know? That deep, sparkling shine on some cars isn’t just regular paint—it’s metallic or pearl-based paint. Metallic Paint: Contains tiny aluminum flakes that reflect light for a shimmery effect Pearl Paint: Uses mica crystals, which create a richer, color-shifting effect depending on the angle of light Many car manufacturers, including luxury brands, use special blends of these paints to achieve a high-end, luminous look. #themoreyouknow #pearls #metallic #refinish #paint #carpaint #rolllikenothingeverhappened

Why Car Paint Fades Over Time: Did you know? The biggest enemies of vehicle paint are UV rays, oxidation, and pollutants. Over time, sunlight breaks down the molecular bonds in your paint, leading to fading, dullness, and even peeling. This is why garage parking, ceramic coatings, and wax help preserve your car’s shine for years. Pro Tip: If your car’s paint is starting to fade, a paint correction and ceramic coat can bring back its vibrancy. #themoreyouknow #refinish #refinishseries #bestinclass #rolllikenothingeverhappened #bodyshop #vehiclepaint #paint #automotivepaint
