Advanced Frame Repair Techniques
Precision Measuring and Calibration
Modern unibody structures require exact alignment to ensure safety and performance. Mako Auto Body uses laser-guided reference systems that meet OEM specifications for every critical measurement point.
Aluminum and High-Strength Steel Procedures
Specialized tools, fixture blocks, and heat-treated welding pins allow controlled repairs on mixed-material platforms. Technicians follow manufacturer heat guidelines to preserve metal integrity and prevent hidden stress zones.
Paint and Finishing Excellence
Custom Color Matching
Spectrophotometer readings are cross-checked against factory databases to produce an exact paint formula. Multiple test panels verify gloss, depth, and clarity before any refinishing work begins.
Eco-Friendly Clearcoats
Low-VOC urethane formulations help reduce environmental impact without sacrificing durability. High-speed buffing and multi-stage polishing deliver a showroom finish that resists stone chips and UV fading.
Seamless Insurance Coordination
Direct Estimating and Approval
Our team works directly with major insurers to submit digital estimates, photos, and repair plans. Faster approvals mean reduced rental periods and fewer disruptions to your schedule.
Parts Sourcing and Logistics
We manage OEM and aftermarket part orders, track dock deliveries, and stage components for efficient workflow. Real-time updates keep you informed about part availability and expected completion dates.
Comprehensive Vehicle Inspections
Pre-Repair Diagnostics
Before dismantling, technicians capture 360-degree photos and document existing scratches, dents, and mechanical concerns. This record protects you from pre-existing damage claims and sets clear expectations.
Post-Repair Quality Assurance
A detailed checklist covers alignment tolerances, panel gaps, paint adhesion, and undercarriage cleanliness. Final road testing verifies handling, braking, and electronic systems before the vehicle is released.
