Minor dents and scratches on a car can be disheartening for the car owners. This not only affects the car’s aesthetics but also contributes to lowering its resale value. Moreover, repairing requires a lot of time and finances. This is when the SMART repair technique comes into play. The SMART (Small to Medium Area Repair Technology) allows car owners to get cosmetic damages fixed in minimum time.

Let’s jump a little deeper into the SMART repair technique and elaborate on its working and pros.  

SMART repair is a technique to fix the cosmetic dents of a car. The technique involves innovative tools and methods helping in dent repair without damaging car paint and other parts. The technique includes spot, dent and glass repair, wheel refurbishment, interior repairs and others.  

Following are the steps involved in the SMART repair technique. 

The first step in the SMART repair process is to assess the damages caused to the car body. In this step, an expert analyses whether the dent can be repaired through the SMART technique or requires major fixes. 

During the preparation, the affected area is cleaned and sanded to prepare it for repair. This can include removing chipped car paint, scrubbing dents and removing rough patches.

If the technique causes any damage to the car paint, the damaged area needs to be repainted. Usually, the car colour code is used to perfectly match the new colour with the rest of the body. 

Once done, a clear coat is applied to provide the car with a finishing touch. After that, the repair area is inspected to ensure that the repairs match the required standards. 

Here are some types of dents that can be repaired by the SMART repair technique.
