Elite Collision Center of Tyler

Another happy customer after a repair and some paint correction to bring this big boy back to life. Replaced the right fender and repaired right door. The did a full detail, a two step buff and some SB3 Solo to top it off.

It’s so rewarding and gratifying when you are part of making such an impact in a young persons life.
This young man has had a lot of struggles in his life, And has definitely felt the pain and hard that this world can deal our youth. The world we live in can be very cruel to our youth from bullies, to broken homes and empty promises. We got the privilege to help his family make a dream come true for this young man here. It’s a long story, but here’s the gist of it.
This truck belong to his grandfather and he’s always wanted it, but unfortunately somebody else got a hold of it And did not take very good care of it on top of wrecking it. His grandfather is 69 years old and has never done bodywork before, but set out on a mission to fix the truck back up for his grandson. As fate would have it, my wife and I happen to be friends with one of the family members and they ask our advice on different products and how to move forward with repairs. After speaking with his father and his grandfather, we decided to do our part in assisting his family Making it look new again. His 69-year-old grandfather just about put his self in the hospital doing bodywork on it and his dad completely disassembled and upgraded most everything on the truck such as the radio doorhandles back up camera new bed, cap tailgate cap running boards…. the list just goes on you get an idea where I’m going with this. Not only was it very rewarding for us to be able to do the paint work on it but we also met some really good people who are now friends. A big huge thank you goes out to the paint supplier that we use- Paint Works here in Tyler, Texas. When I called and spoke with with Paint Works about what I was trying to do for this young man, they didn’t even think twice About stepping up and supplying the materials for the family. I am truly blessed to have amazing people in my life ! I know this young man is on cloud nine right now because of these kind of people. With a very humble heart I just want to thank the Lord that we had the privilege to be a part of this. 

We gave this one some SB3 Coatings protection over the weekend . Gave it a good bath with pH neutral soap, Then give it a Claybar treatment with Decon then a second wash again with the pH neutral soap. Run a to two-step buff over it and then a final wash. After drying it off and let it sit overnight, we came in this morning took a blower blew out all around the headlights, grill, front bumper, Roof molding, mirrors, belt molding,tail lights, wheel molding ,Tailgate and rear bumper to make sure there was no lingering water. Loaded the spray bottles up with READY which is a SB3 preparation spray. Sprayed our microfiber towels down a little and begin wiping the truck down to ensure there’s no residue or oil from our hands anywhere on it .
Installed Alpha, which is a five-year coating. We also used Vortex on the wheels , which is a two-year wheel coating. Tomorrow morning I will come in and dress up the interior, glass and tires .
I’ll let the owner know it’ll be ready around three they can come pick it up and hit the road knowing that it’s fully protected against the elements. More photos tomorrow after the final touches are done.
