A Picture Of A Vehicle Being Undercoated

Undercoating is a thick water tight sealant mixed with rust inhibitors which is sprayed to the frame and floor boards of a vehicle. We are careful not to undercoat the exhaust, drive train and other mechanical items as the undercoat can interfere with their operation.

Undercoat usually takes a few hours to become tacky allowing the vehicle to leave our shop and be driven for light use. Within 24 to 48 hours the undercoat will be fully cured allowing the vehicle to be used in rain, salt, sand and gravel. Undercoating not only protects the underside of your vehicle from road debris, salt, rust and corrosion. But it also reduces road noise by up to 50%.

Undercoating can be purchased with a Life Time Warranty which means you'll never have to worry about corrosion. And if any undercoating peels off we'll repair if free of charge.

Please read this Review.

We received this amazing review today on our Google place page. It's not often that someone takes the time to thank us for a job well done; and we really appreciate the people who do, it means a lot and goes a long way to building pride in what we do. 

Congratulations to each and every person at Splashes! You deserve a pat on the back.

Here is the customer review;

"Exceptional, over the top, all around service from all staff involved! I called to get information about replacing my windshield and the gentelman who answered the phone was so friendly and helpful. How can you say no when he said they would provide me with a rental car and have my car cleaned for pickup. The next day I walked into the office with wonderful welcoming staff. It was so easy. When I picked up my car, on my lunch break the same day, my truck had never been so clean, not only outside but inside too. I did not expect my truck to be clean to the point it was. Thank you Splashes for an exceptional job. I will be spreading the word about your windshield replacement service. It was well worth the ICBC deductable. It made it a little easier to pay. SPLASHES is the place to go."

Google Does It Again!

Google sent this mailer to Spalshes Auto Glass in Surrey BC.

And as usual I opened it ready to through it directly into the recycle bin.

Only when it jumped out at me and became 3D I was so impressed it still is sitting on my desk.

Only Google would come up with a mailer like this, Well Done Google.

Windshield Rock Chip Repairs Covered By Insurance?

At Splashes Auto Glass in Surrey BC we continuously get phone calls from customers saying that they saw an Auto Glass commercial stating that Windshield Rock Chips are repaired at no cost to the consumer when claiming under their comprehensive insurance.

These commercials are run by a national AutoGlass chain and they advertise for all of North America. But here is Surrey, British Columbia most vehicles are insured through ICBC and ICBC does not cover the repair of Windshield Rock Chips.  ICBC did once pay for windshield chip repairs, but have since removed that coverage all together.

And most private insurance companies do not cover Windshield Rock Chip Repairs either. Although Family Insurance and Canadian Northern Shield are two private companies that come to mind who DO cover Windshield Rock Chip Repairs at no cost to the consumer when claiming under their comprehensive insurance.

If you have recently have had a rock hit your vehicle windshield, you’ll likely be on the hook for getting it repaired. If you do not get your Windshield repaired and it splits or cracks you'll have no choice but to replace the entire windshield. To my knowledge the lowest deductible available from any insurance company in BC is $200.

Therefore Windshield Rock Chip Repairs are much cheaper than a replacement and they only take about 20 minutes to complete. At Splashes in Surrey BC we guarantee our Windshield Rock Chip Repairs for LIFE and there is no appointment necessary! Should your Windshield Rock Chip ever crack or split for any reason, we will refund to you the entire amount of your windshield repair!

X-Kote 1967 Mustang. Paint Restoration, Protection and Scratch Repair

X-Kote is a revolutionary product that is not a wax or polish, but a coating applied to your vehicles finish after it has been prepped, wet sanded and polished. The X-Kote paint restoration coating cures and bonds permanently to the factory finish leaving a smooth, clear and deep coating. The result is an incredibly vivid colour with depth and shine. As Kote bonds to the factory finish it also fills in any scratches and causes them to all but disappear. But most importantly as X-Kote restores your factory finish and is not a wax that will wash off, that brand new shine will last as long as if it were a new.

Check out these vehicles we have recently X-Kote'd

Trail Of The GNU TSD Rally 2012

For those interested... here is the Trail Of The GNU TSD Rally, as seen from our 1970 Volvo 144S.

As usual, this years Trail Of The GNU Rally in Rocky Mountain House Alberta was one of the best TSD rally's that we enter into each year. This year had allot of gravel and mud, but also a ton of glare ice to make things REALLY tricky. A very fun and challenging event, with loads of good poeple and great drivers. With time declarations at a minimum, the scores added up quickly and at the end of the day anything was possible. 

In the end the winners were Taisto Heinonen from BC and Leanne Tunnila from AB in their 2001 Audi TT. Together Jack Bensley and Ryan Oliver managed a 2nd place in our 1970 Volvo 144.

Thank you to all the organizers and volunteers, you guys make the 12 hour trip worth while! Keep up the great work!
