Carello Auto's workshop is set up with state of the art equipment, in order to meet the requirements of being a major structural Sambra repairer. Once a vehicle is quoted on, assessed and authorized by the relevant insurance company, parts are ordered and once they arrive, vehicles are then moved into the workshop.

Paint Shop

The vehicle body is now prepared for painting and passes through three phases:

► Priming
► Flatting
► Masking

Equipment includes 8 x dry flatting vacuum systems with infrared lighting for efficient curing of primer.

Spray Painting and Baking

Specialized personnel electronically mix top quality Spies Hecker paint, which is meticulously matched to each individual vehicle. Vehicles are then baked in one of two air-tight, dust free baking booths.

 
 
Assembly
       
It is now time for all repaired panels and parts to be carefully re-fitted to the vehicle.  Specialists in this area of production ensure attention to every detail as the vehicle repair process comes to end.
       
     
Auto Electrical, Mechanical & Final Adjustment
The vehicle is then checked for any remaining mechanical work, which may be required to be completed, as well as auto electrical checks for airbags, etc. Final adjustments are then made to bring all the work to completion and the vehicle is then ready for polishing.
 
Polishing and Wash Bay
   
High speed, hand held polishing machines are used to ensure that the full vehicle is given a professional polish to ensure a showroom shine before the vehicle is washed and dried.
   
Quality Control & Delivery  
Though the vehicle passes through various quality check points throughout the process, a dedicated quality controller will put the vehicle through a final check at this time, before the customer is contacted for delivery.
