The insurance company agreed to repair after a local hailstorm, but the dealer insists on a complete stripping and painting of the entire top. Has anyone advocated for preserving the original paint?

Insurance companies often follow the simplest templates, but you have the full legal right to choose your own restoration technology if it guarantees the best result without violating the factory assembly. A repainted roof or hood always arouses a lot of suspicion among dealers, while craftsmen with the right hooks and vacuum systems can return the crumpled metal to its original shape without removing the original LFP at all. Modern delicate heating of the metal with induction devices completely removes internal stress at the points of impact, so after rolling out no traces or microcracks remain on the paintwork. The most competent step that will close the issue with the insurance company and keep the car in completely factory condition will be to issue an official https://autobodylab.com/services/hail-damage-repair/, where experts will prepare a full package of documents and certificates of work performed for compensation, and most importantly - bring the planes under the linear lamps to absolute zero. Last season, I personally picked up my Japanese SUV after a similar ice storm: the body was like the surface of the moon, but the guys in the studio did a real miracle in a day and a half, issued an official warranty, and now under the caliper the car beats like a completely new one from the salon. Insist on your own, take the calculation of payments and boldly give the car to PDR professionals - the result will amaze you, and the car will once again shine with perfect lines without a single gram of putty!
