Alloy Wheels

Curbed or scuffed alloys can make even the most special vehicle look mistreated. Our professional alloy wheel refurbishment service restores wheels to their original condition and can greatly increase the value of your car. The damage is sanded smooth, fillers are used if necessary, before the area is prepared for painting and finished with a high gloss 2pack lacquer.

Bumper Damage

Modern bumpers and other colour coded trims are easily repaired. Splits or cracks are plastic welded. The paint damage is filled, primed and resprayed, blending the repair into the rest of the bumper.
Textured, un-painted plastic bumpers and trims can also be repaired. These are filled and primed, then a texture spray which replicates the original finish is applied, before plastic paints are sprayed over the top.

Cigarette Burns

Whether it's your car or home, seat or carpet, a cigarette burn is unsightly. This leaves one of two options: complete replacement or a smart repair. We replace the burnt fibres with new ones to match the original fabric pattern as close as possible, making the repair almost invisible to the naked eye.

Interior & Plastic Trim

Unsightly damage caused by car phone kits or damage caused by thieves, can be repaired rather than having to resort to expensive replacement parts. Holes or tears are filled using plastic filler gels then sanded down, textured and recoloured. Our repairs can be carried out on most interior plastic trim. All repairs are strong virtually invisible and guaranteed to last.

Leather

VCL Aftercare leather repairs offer fantastic results that last whether it be a classic car just showing its age or that new sports car with a cut or scratch. Special repair techniques and materials are used to repair minor tears and holes.

Paint Restoration

VCL Aftercare can bring your vehicles paintwork back up to its original colour, removing the pale and faded look whilst removing all minor scratches in one go. Our wet sanding technique actually lowers the paint surface by sanding quite a large area down with very fine emery paper, and then slowly buffing back to a high gloss.

Scratches

Some scratches are more serious than others, that's why we have many different methods for removing them, from simply polishing them out to bodywork respray service.
