Car paintwork and full resprays in Southam
We paint cars in our own spray booth in Southam, Warwickshire, from small paint repairs to full resprays. The booth takes both water and solvent based paints, and we match colours to your car’s paint code or mix a bespoke blend.
Full resprays
Full resprays are always done with every panel and all the glass off the car. That shows up any rust-prone areas before painting, which cuts the risk of the base coat not sticking, and gives a stronger foundation for a better, longer-lasting finish.
All rust is removed from the shell before it’s treated against corrosion. Once the shell is right, the panels are painted, refitted and lined up, always with even gaps between them. All exposed areas are wax-oiled as an extra barrier against the weather.
Colour matching
We match colours to paint codes, and can mix bespoke blends for most requirements, from a single repaired panel to a whole car in a new colour.
What customers say
Greg & his excellent team recently completed a respray on my 911 Turbo.
Fantastic attention to detail and outstanding quality of work. Really helpful throughout fixing little bits and sending photo updates. Turnaround time was awesome too.

I had four wheels resprayed following a poor repair job by the previous keeper. The owner Greg explained why the previous repair had reacted poorly and how he would complete the repairs. He completed the job much quicker than I anticipated and to a high standard. He also carried out an extra repair that I had not asked or paid for on my wiper arm which may have been a quick job for him but would have been difficult for me to do. Very much appreciated and highly recommend to others.

I came down to Southam Bodies after I purchased a AfterMarket side skirt for my Volkswagen Scirocco! This part needed to be painted to colour match the car and also needed to be fitted, as seen in the picture, it is now on the car, and is fitted and painted extremely nicely!
Work was carried out quickly, and price was very good for the quality provided :) 5*****

Questions people ask
Can you match my car’s paint colour?
Yes, for most requirements. We match colours to paint codes and can mix bespoke blends.
Do you take the panels off for a full respray?
Yes, always. Every panel and all the glass come off, so we can find any rust-prone areas before painting. That gives a stronger foundation and a longer-lasting finish.
