Mazda CX-5 Paint Restoration After a Side Impact

A side impact collision can leave your Mazda CX-5 with deep scratches, dents, and damaged paint that ruin the car’s appearance and reduce its resale value. If you’re located in Brownstown, MI or surrounding areas like Trenton, Taylor, Southgate, or Woodhaven, restoring your vehicle’s paint the right way starts with a professional auto body team.

At The Collision Shop Brownstown, we specialize in precise paint restoration that brings your Mazda CX-5 back to life. Let’s walk you through how side impact damage is repaired and why choosing a certified collision center matters.


What Happens to Your Paint After a Side Impact?

A side impact doesn’t just dent metal—it often scrapes and chips the paint down to the primer or bare metal. The Mazda CX-5, like many modern SUVs, has a layered paint system with a clear coat on top for protection. When these layers are compromised:

  • Rust can develop if the bare metal is exposed.
  • Color matching becomes critical—especially for colors like Soul Red Crystal or Snowflake White Pearl, which require advanced paint blending techniques.
  • Body panels may require reshaping or replacement before paint is reapplied.

Our Mazda-Specific Approach to Paint Restoration

At The Collision Shop Brownstown, we don’t guess with your vehicle’s color. We use factory-grade paint systems and computer-matched technology to ensure your Mazda CX-5 looks exactly like it did before the accident.

Here’s our process:

  1. Inspection & Estimate
    We assess the full extent of the paint and structural damage, using industry tools to create a detailed, transparent quote.
  2. Dent & Panel Repair
    Before any painting begins, we fix all physical damage using OEM-approved methods—this includes reshaping, sanding, and priming affected panels.
  3. Computerized Color Matching
    Using Mazda’s exact color codes and digital spectrophotometers, we match the paint precisely so there are no visible differences between new and original paint.
  4. Paint Application in Controlled Booths
    Paint is applied in our dust-free, climate-controlled spray booths to avoid imperfections and ensure a flawless finish.
  5. Clear Coat & Curing
    We finish with a durable clear coat to protect the color and provide a factory-quality shine, then cure it with heat for longevity.
  6. Final Polish & Inspection
    Once complete, your vehicle is polished and inspected to make sure the results meet our high standards.

Why You Shouldn’t Delay Paint Repair

Even if the scratches or chips seem small, neglecting paint damage can lead to rust, more expensive repairs, and a lower trade-in value. The sooner you repair it, the better your outcome—and the lower your cost.
