We use professional masking techniques, high-quality tape and paper, and a climate-controlled paint booth to prevent overspray. All glass, trim, wheels, and non-painted surfaces are carefully masked before spraying. Our booth's filtered airflow system captures overspray particles and ensures a clean finish. Every vehicle is inspected after painting to remove any masking residue.
