Why you need ‘Clean Dry Filtered Air’ In Body Repair. 💨 🚘
If you spray paint using air that hasn’t been properly filtered and dried, you introduce a whole host of contaminants into the paint. We’re talking:
• Moisture (yes, even air carries water vapour)
• Oils from compressors or the environment
• Dust particles and microscopic debris
When these make their way into the paint during spraying, they can cause:
❌ Common Issues with Contaminated Air:
• Blistering or bubbling in the surface
• “Fish eyes” tiny craters caused by oils or silicones
• Flaking or peeling over time
• Uneven texture (often called the “orange peel” effect)
• Poor adhesion, which shortens the life of the paint
It’s a bit like trying to bake a perfect cake in a dirty oven—no matter how good your ingredients are, the result just won’t cut it.
✅ What We Do Differently at Bodymatters
At Bodymatters, we’re not interested in cutting corners. That’s why we only paint vehicles in our dedicated Spraybooth, using a high-performance filtration and drying system. This ensures that:
• The air is completely dry, eliminating moisture risks
• It’s filtered and clean, removing oils and dust
• The result is a factory-level finish that lasts
The end result? A high gloss, smooth finish that stays looking sharp not just for a few weeks, but for years to come.
🛑 Why We Don’t Offer Mobile Repairs
Mobile repairs might sound convenient, but without full control over the environment and equipment, the risks are far greater. Without:
• A sealed spraybooth
• Filtered, dry compressed air
• And manufacturer-approved paint systems
…the finish is far more likely to fade, degrade, or fail completely. That’s why we carry out every repair on-site, in a fully equipped facility where we can guarantee consistent quality.
💬 Final Thought
You might not see the air we use but you’ll definitely notice the difference it makes.
Whether it’s a minor scuff or a full respray, we do it the right way, with the right tools, and a genuine passion for quality.
If you care about how your car looks and how long it lasts choose a team that pays attention to the details, even the ones you can’t see. 😉
