Paint thickness guage (PTG)

Clenz Ltd — Tue, 07 Sep 2010 22:18:34 +0000

This sophisticated device measures the thickness of the combined paint layers (base/colour/clear) on your car.

Using a non-clearcoated area eg a door shut as a datum we can then calculate the likely thickness of the clearcoat layer on your car.

This enables us to safely polish the vehicle without causing potential clearcoat failure by leaving too thin a layer in-situ.

Here we are checking an RS4 Avant prior to scratch removal. We calculated around 50 microns of clearcoat on the vehicle and our polishing process removed 3 microns which was way inside safety limits.

Paint chip touch in

Clenz Ltd — Tue, 07 Sep 2010 22:15:03 +0000

On larger jobs, as part of our service, we will glady fill in the occasional chip if you have the right colour paint for your vehicle although we do carry generic black, white & silver on the van.

We will be pleased to quote you to touch in areas of extensive chipping.

Sadly we do know our chipping record – 127 on the nose cone of a tracked black M3!

Bird strike removal

Clenz Ltd — Tue, 07 Sep 2010 22:05:25 +0000

To remove bird strikes without damaging your paint please see the relevant article in the car care advice section.

However, should you leave the bird strike on your car we can often remove the stain by machine polishing the affected area. Please be warned that on occasion the bird lime can burn right through the clearcoat layer whichich will require repainting to repair.

This black Audi A6 had two very large strikes on the bonnet that had badly stained the paintwork. To top things off the owner had used a household cloth (rough!) and T-cut (not suitable for this type of paint) in an amateur attempt to shift them. This had made matters much worse as the surrounding area was now heavily dulled!

Shot 1 shows the extent of one of the stains. Shot 2 shows the affected area masked and ready to machine polish – we use the 2 ‘arrows’ to locate the affected area during the final stages of polishing when removal is almost complete. Shot 3 shows the stain removed but with some residual cleaning up to complete. Shot 4 shows the area restored to its former glory.

Our customer was very happy to say the least!
