Everything you need to know about Paint & Refinishing with The Spectrum VR Group
Do your workshops have the capacity for oversized commercial vehicles?
Absolutely. Our facilities in West Thurrock and Sidcup feature 18m, high-clearance spray booths designed specifically for the largest vehicles on the road. This allows us to provide professional Paint & Refinishing for full-length trailers, double-decker buses, and heavy-duty HGV that standard bodyshops simply cannot accommodate.
How accurate is your colour-matching for branded liveries?
We use digital spectrophotometers to achieve a 100% accurate colour match for every project.
Whether we are touching up a minor scratch or performing a full fleet respray, ur technicians in Sidcup and West Thurrock ensure the finish is indistinguishable from the factory original, protecting your professional brand image on the road.
Do you offer specialist protective or high-durability finishes?
Commercial vehicles face harsh conditions, from road salt to industrial sites.
Beyond aesthetics, our Paint & Refinishing service includes the application of high-solid, durable coatings that provide superior chip resistance and weather protection. This ensures your fleet stays looking professional for longer, even under the most demanding operational schedules.
