You work hard to keep your car looking great, so the sudden appearance of rust on your vehicle can be disheartening, to say the least. While you might be tempted to try removing it on your own, the rust protection team at Precision Collision & Auto Glass in Frankfort, MI, says this is one car care task best left to the professionals.

The removal of most vehicle rust buildup requires the use of a sander or heavy-duty grinder. While these tools may seem relatively simple to use, in reality, they require careful technique. If used improperly, a metal grinder can severely damage your car’s body, requiring you to get expensive repairs. In addition, using these tools without the proper safety equipment could result in an injury or lasting respiratory issues.

Even after the rust has been removed, there’s still the matter of paint. Are you confident in your ability to prime the sanded area and correctly match a fresh coat of paint? Professionals have years of training and even the assistance of color-matching technology to ensure the repaired area looks just like new.

And what about rust protection? You should definitely let the pros handle this job. The team at Precision Collision & Auto Glass applies a polyurethane coating to the areas of your car that are most prone to rust, such as behind the rear wheels and your door bottoms. This powerful coating can go a long way in preventing rust from forming in the first place. They have the necessary specialized tools and materials to ensure the job is done well and accurately the first time.
