Re-clear: Restore and Protect Your Vehicle’s Finish
At Resurrected & Protected, our re-clear service restores the shine and protection to your vehicle’s existing paint. If the clear coat has faded, been damaged, or lost its gloss, we can apply a fresh layer to rejuvenate your finish, ensuring it looks like new again.
The Process
- Light Sanding: The existing clear coat is lightly sanded to create a smooth surface for the new layer to adhere to.
- Re-clear Application: A fresh layer of high-quality clear coat is applied over the entire panel to restore gloss and protection.
- Polishing: After the clear coat cures, we polish the surface to a smooth, mirror-like finish.
What Can Be Re-cleared?
- Entire Panels: If the clear coat on a panel has become dull, faded, or scratched, a full re-clear will restore its gloss and depth.
- UV Damage: Re-clear can rejuvenate surfaces affected by yellowing or fading from sun exposure.
- Light Surface Scratches: Re-clearing is ideal for repairing light scratches and imperfections on the surface.
What Can’t Be Re-cleared?
- Cracked or Peeling Clear Coat: If the clear coat is cracked, chipped, or peeling, re-clear will not fix the damage. In such cases, the panel may require a full repaint.
- Deep Surface Damage: Re-clearing won’t repair deeper imperfections, such as gouges or structural damage beneath the paint.
Why Choose Re-clear?
- Restores Gloss: Revives the shine and depth of the original paint, leaving it with a glossy, polished finish.
- Protects the Paint: Adds an extra layer of protection from UV rays, dirt, and contaminants.
- Extends Lifespan: Fresh clear coat enhances your paint job’s longevity without the need for a full repaint.
