What do we do?

Our Services Include:

Dents

Bumper Repair

Front bumper or Rear bumper, we can do it! Do you keep hitting that annoying curb, or does your 16 year old son watch too many Fast and Furious movies!

Frame Repair or Unibody Repair

We take frame repairs very seriously! A poor frame or unibody repair could place your life in danger, and can affect the overall functionality of your vehicle.
We perform frame repairs by using state of the art technology

The frame or unibody is the structure of your car. Poor repairs can cause improper wear on your tires and affect the structural integrity of your vehicle. Potentially, it affects the fit and finish of your vehicle, & even impacts how your car behaves on the road.

Aluminum Repair

We are an aluminum certified shop. We perform all of our aluminum repairs in a separate facility, using advanced equipment that is designed specifically for aluminum vehicles. We are the only repair facility in our area that utilizes a totally separate facility for aluminum repairs.

Paint Repair

We provide the best car painting services in Mobile, AL. We use the highest quality paint products to ensure that our customer's vehicles are restored to original manufacturer standards. Many auto body repair facilities can over charge customers for paint jobs and neglect quality by using a low-grade product. Many auto body shops negatively impact the quality of your car due to improper prep procedures. Many shops will not remove items from the car before painting instead the items are taped. This is a simple procedure that can impact the quality of the paint job done on your vehicle.

Paint Materials

At Spectrum Collision we use the highest quality paint products in the business. We use globally recognized paint materials

Why are our products so good?

We use water-based paint products by Sikkens (AKZO NOBEL) which are environmentally friendly and are warranted by the manufacturer. Sikkens is a globally recognized paint manufacturer, providing the highest quality in paint repairs and longevity.

There are a variety of different paint name brands and products ranging from very inexpensive low quality, to expensive high-quality products. An inexpensive low-quality paint product should not be used in any high-quality collision shop. The Reason: cheap automotive paint materials have a short life span, which could quickly result in paint delamination.

Factory approved paint brands: Sikkens (AKZO NOBEL), PPG, Dupont, Sherwin Williams), BASF, & more.

Paint Matching

Matching automotive paint in today’s industry can be extremely complex without the knowledge and advanced technology to do so.
At Spectrum we use state of the art industry proven methods to match paint color.

Each automotive manufacturer provides a paint code with the vehicle. We use that information to create a computer-generated paint mix formula. This paint mix formula is specific for that particular vehicle. The computer also generates a list of color chips for that particular color of paint. We then use this information to perform a spray-out (spraying paint on a card for color comparison), to determine the accuracy of the paint code. Environmental factors and slight variations in color can affect the accuracy of the paint code. To become more accurate, we use a highly specialized color matching camera that allows us to take a pic of the paint. This information allows us to generate another mix formula if needed.

How We Do It?

Many collision shops have front office personnel who are only skilled at writing estimates. At Spectrum Collision the owner, David Kirby along with other experienced personnel, and associated managers have 30+ years of Collision Repair experience. The unique thing that sets us apart from other repair facilities, is all of our front office staff have countless years of actual paint and body technician experience. This experience enables them to perform all phases of the job, including writing you a proper estimate.

Why does this matter to you?

A repair facility whose front office personnel are only capable of writing estimates can affect your repairs and the price you pay for that repair. At Spectrum, our staff is capable of seeing your repair through the entire process. This experience allows for better quality control through the entire process. The additional benefit of a one shop location is the on site capability to help with additional oversight and timeliness of your vehicle’s repairs. The drawback to multiple location shops is the owners spend more time managing than customer service.

Proper equipment & training is essential in this day and time in the collision repair industry. Here is a list of a few of our specialized equipment we use that other shops may or may not have.

Plastic welding

Resistance spot welding – This allows us to put factory spot welds back on your automobile.

Silica Bronze Welding

3D dimensional measuring equipment

Computerized scanners

Heated downdraft paint booths for extremely quick drying times

Our aluminum shop contains all separate specialized tools for aluminum vehicles from welding equipment, aluminum pulling equipment (celete bench), specialized rivet guns, adhesives, vacuums, and hand tools that are not used in the steel department whatsoever to prevent cross-contamination.
