The paint and refinishing processes is the most visible and noticeable step of the classic car painting & car paint restoration process. The quality of the paint materials used is as important as the quality of the painter’s preparation and application.
At Innovative Restorations we use quality materials made my BASF and have an in-house mixing system and color database with new and antique factory color code information. If a custom color is something that you are looking for we can create whatever it is you have in mind.

The Process
Disassembly
Vehicles are fully disassembled. Door handles, mirrors, trim, glass, etc are removed from the vehicle to properly prepare the surfaces to receive its coating.
Access Repair
Vehicle is thoroughly cleaned to remove contaminants. Then existing finish is inspected for dents and to determine whether it is suitable to refinish over, or if panels need to be stripped to their bare substrate.
Repair
Body work will then be performed (if necessary) and primed.
Prep
Panels are sanded with 400 – 800 grit sand papers, then cleaned and moved into the spray booth where it is masked to prevent paint over spray from getting on unwanted parts of the vehicle.
Clean
One last time before painting the vehicle will we wiped down with a final wipe to insure contaminates have been removed.
Color Match
Before color is applied, test panels are sprayed to verify color and to see if any color adjustments need to be made to the paint formula.
Refinish
Now the moment we all have been waiting for, Its time to paint the vehicle.
Wet Sand & Polish
Wet sanding and polishing follow the painting process to bring that glossy finish to the next level.
Final Assembly
Lastly, assembly for delivery
What Customers Say
The guys at Innovative are top notch. My wife and I had our vehicle fixed here. The communication was great, the deadlines where met, but the quality of work is where this place really shines. Another point I would like to mention is how clean and organized the working area was, these folks really take pride in their work. I would gladly recommend this establishment to anyone looking for quality professional body work, paint, restoration, and repairs.
Great shop! These guys are honest and the prices are fair. They can handle all your restoration needs! I will definitely be back for more work.
Adam and his team did a excellet job completing the mechanical upgrades and paint work on my classic Ford. Having had a bad experience with a previous shop that was incompetent and ill-equipped to perform the work, I knew from my initial meeting with Adam that they are a professional and extremely knowledgeable shop. My expectations were more than met with the quality and attention to detail that was shown on my project. I’m now a long lasting customer and would without hesitation highly recommend Innovative for all your automotive needs. You’ll be in good hands there! – Chris
Just had Adam and his team put a rear diffuser on my car and they did some great work. The car looks great and they did a check on my entire car. Thank you for the great service. No one gives that kind of detail to their work done.

I came to Innovative Restorations for some non-emergency, but important mechanical work. They fit me into their schedule quickly, as it was my day off and I really appreciated their flexibility to accommodate my schedule. The technicians were both courteous and knowledgeable. There was a pleasant waiting area that was clean and quiet. You can tell that a lot of care goes in to making sure their customers are comfortable. If you’re a car person there is a lot to look at and admire here. I highly recommend Innovative Restorations!
I brought my car in to have the alternator replaced. They provided me with a reasonable, detailed estimate very quickly. I liked that they told me what had to be fixed right away, vs what will need to be fixed in the future. They took the time to explain the repair to me which I appreciated. I had my car back within one day of dropping it off which was great. Very well organized and professional, I would definitely recommend and go back for future mechanical needs. Great to deal with, thanks again guys!
Had some custom work done on my ’48 Desoto here and I am very happy. Very knowledgeable and can do it all start to finish. Also had them restore an old Murray pedal car for my daughter that came out amazing. Just picked up a second pedal car and will definitely have them restore this one as well.
These Guys are hands down are the Best. I brought my 1961 VW Dunebuggy there and the Men had fixed the fiberglass tub flawless , rewired it correctly & Painted it Perfectly. They are My Personal Body Shop.

Highly recommend Adam and his team when you have issues with your car or even if you have a question. Adam is very knowledgeable, patient, and is willing to work with your concerns.
Adam and the guys worked on a vehicle of mine and the workmanship was perfect! He also dealt with the insurance company so I didn’t have to which was great. It was nice having someone I could trust to deal with that. He also showed me around his immaculately clean shop. You could tell by the vehicles in there that people have trust in him and the company with the high quality of classic vehicles in the shop. I would recommend this company to anyone.
Adam was most helpful with planning and executing the paint job on our 1966 Morgan. The job turned out to be a six month project that required much sheet metal talent and a minimum amount of filler. He received the car in seven pieces and worked with me to finish the tub first followed by the fenders. The front fender on a Morgan is eight feet long and due to Adam’s diligence he found a weld crack in the left fender that had gone undetected by me, but would have led to failure at a future date. The hood or bonnet was another challenge to remove the wrinkles using minimal filler. To summarize our experience with Adam, I must brag about our first place concur winner this past
Autumn Mog 2019
The Autumn Mog was a gathering of 45 Morgans with about eight vintage four seat models.
I am extremely satisfied with Adam and his crew at innovative restorations. Adam is one of the few business owners that will go out of his way to ensure that his clients understand the process of restoration and all of their options. He is up front, honest and performs top of the line work. I would highly recommend innovative restorations for your basic day to day maintenance or the highest level of automobile restoration.
