1st Class Auto Can Make Your Luxury Car Repainting Resolution a Reality
We do the repairs, the painting, and the detailing that will make your New Year even happier
1st Class European Authorized Coachworks, the factory aluminum collision repair shop of Pompano Beach, is the leading auto body repair and painting destination for luxury cars in South Florida for good reasons. For almost 40 years, we have been the factory trained and authorized collision repair resource for Audis, Aston Martins, Acura, Jaguars, Porsches, Range Rovers, Teslas, and Volkswagens…which means when folks in South Florida that have acquired a high-end luxury vehicle want to add trusted body repair and a car-commercial quality paint job to their holiday wish list, we should be the first call made in the new year.
Professional Preparation
Painting luxury autos requires considerably more advanced techniques and attention to detail. To consistently achieve a high-quality paint finish that looks like it is pulling off the assembly line, meticulous preparation is required, ensuring our artists are working with a blank canvas. With electronic and air-powered sanders, compressors, and professional masking products, we blast off every speck of dirt, grease, pinholes, and blemishes, and prep your car for a showroom finish. The most luxurious paint jobs can require several phases of painting and ultra-fine sanding to really make it pop, but our technicians receive extensive factory training to paint specialty cars like yours and have mastered such complex multi-stage paints.
Why does the surface of your car need to be free of any imperfections?
Anything on the surface before the paint is applied directly affects the outcome and how the car looks when completed. Even the tiniest particles can ruin a perfect showroom finish, and our reputation is riding on every paint job we do. Humidity alone is a huge factor, which is why we control the humidity in our “bake booth,” where the luxury vehicles are painted. Our paint booths are triple filtered to ensure all dust is removed from the air.
Once paint is applied, any imperfections are magnified, so 1st Class Auto takes the time to do it right. We match any color of factory paint with our color spectrometer and prep your vehicle for paint that is applied in the most ideally sterilized environment. Whether you are giving yourself a gift for the New Year or giving an amazing present for someone who’s luxury vehicle needs a facelift, consider everything we offer as part of the full body painting process:
- Tear down and strip
- Sheet metal repair
- Laser body alignment
- Preparation and primer
- Laying the paint
- Cutting and buffing
This is no economy paint shop. Our process is considerably more extensive than spot painting a section of the car that had been damaged and repaired. The car is stripped to the bare metal, any imperfections are repaired and perfectly aligned before the paint is even mixed. Prepping for the primer before sanding down multiple coats is very labor intensive, and laying the paint evenly and smoothly is an art.
We even use a premium refinishing system from Europe. Spies Heckler utilizes the latest waterborne technology, and 1st Class Auto technicians are specially trained to use it for the absolute best results for luxury vehicle painting.
All that PLUS a commitment to protecting the environment
The goal for everyone at 1st Class Auto is to minimize our impact on the environment, which is why we have been so proactive in making our facility and all its by-products safe and green. Refinishing with waterborne products like the Spies Heckler in one of our three filtered spray booth results in cleaner air and environment for our employees and the community. And by reproducing the environment and techniques used by the manufacturer, albeit with more environmentally friendly products, we reproduce the factory paint exactly, while also bringing harmony to the environment.
