Policies & Other Conditions: 

Deposit and work process: 

For the initial deposit, we require [AMOUNT] upfront to cover the cost of parts, along with a small contingency buffer to account for any potential price increases or availability changes that may occur after the initial estimate is prepared. In addition, [AMOUNT] will be applied toward initial labor to allow work on the project to begin.

Parts typically take approximately 7–12 business days to arrive once ordered. After all required parts are received, the mechanical portion of the work is estimated to take approximately [NUMBER] weeks to complete. To keep you informed, you will receive a progress update via email at the end of each week. Periodically, photo updates will also be sent via text message. Should any unexpected issues arise during the process, we will notify you promptly and discuss next steps as needed. Our goal is to maintain clear and consistent communication throughout the duration of your project.

A&G operates on a weekly billing schedule. At the conclusion of each work week, payment for that week’s completed labor and any additional parts will be requested. Payments may be submitted through the provided payment link or via any other accepted payment methods. Please note that failure to submit payment in a timely manner (within five days) may result in the project being placed on hold. Any work placed on hold may be rescheduled and returned to the queue, which could result in delays to the overall project timeline. 

Labor Disclaimer: 

All labor times are estimates based on our initial inspection for what is seen and known at the time of starting. Actual labor will be billed as performed under A&G’s weekly billing policy. Additional repairs or parts may be required due to hidden, inaccessible, or age-related conditions that cannot be identified during the initial estimate, and may only become apparent as work progresses. Parts pricing and availability are subject to change over time. Any additional labor or parts will be disclosed for customer approval when possible prior to proceeding. Delays in approval or payment may result in work being placed on hold and rescheduled.

Paint Aftercare: 

Paint Aftercare Instructions/Tips: 

Your paint is fresh! Meaning it will still be curing to a degree over the next 6-10 weeks. It is important that you are mindful of the new paint and follow proper procedures to keep it best because the surface is still soft and easily damaged. 

While it is not a guarantee anything will happen to the paint, we recommend the following: 

Do Not: 

- Use any harsh chemicals 

- Go through a car wash; especially touch car washes 

- Apply any protectant coatings; PPF, ceramic, wax, etc. 

- Get the vehicle wrapped 

- Use car covers for at least four weeks 

- Avoid gravel roads or rough terrain if possible 

- Park in harsh elements for long periods of time 

Do: 

- Use dawn dish soap if needed for washing purposes 

- Be careful with paint, use gentle clothes (microfibers) to wipe off/clean by hand, air, or fan dry

- Dry properly 

- Wax your car roughly 90 days after paint 

- Consider ceramic coating after 120 days to protect the paint and create a durable effect

- Park in the shade if you’re able too 

- Congrats on your recent paint service, we hope you love it! If you have any questions, we’d be happy to answer them at 215-669-3072 or
