We offer two types of workmanship warranties depending on the repair type:

A. Limited Lifetime Warranty (Insurance-Based Repairs)

For repairs performed in accordance with manufacturer specifications and insurance-approved repair procedures, Car-O-Practic provides a Limited Lifetime Workmanship Warranty valid for as long as the original customer owns the vehicle.

This warranty covers defects in workmanship related to the specific repair performed.

B. Three-Year Limited Warranty (Customer-Requested Repairs)

For out-of-pocket repairs requested by the customer that may not follow insurance or manufacturer repair standards (at the customer’s request), Car-O-Practic provides a Three (3) Year Limited Workmanship Warranty from the date of repair completion.

We use PPG automotive refinishing products.

Coverage typically includes:

1. Peeling
