When you damage your vehicle and bring it into a trusted auto repair service, you expect your repairs to be both high-quality and long-lasting. However, not all repair techniques are created equal. Some techniques can make your car look perfect immediately after they’ve finished, but the damage can reveal itself over time as you drive your car again. Here at Bumper Buddies, we’re not your typical bumper repair service. We never cut corners, and we always ensure that your repairs are performed using processes that ensure your long-term satisfaction. That’s why we love to utilize the hot stapler repair system. Repairing bumper cracks with a hot stapler will keep the damaged area in perfect condition for years to come, unlike other popular methods utilized by auto repair services. 

The Problem with Soldering

The most popular way for bumper repair services to fix bumper cracks is by soldering the area. The soldering iron melts the plastic slightly to allow you to weld the pieces together and create one seam. However, soldering needs to be performed from the inside of the bumper as well as the outside of the bumper or the bumper may be weak and tear easily. If you want to strengthen it further, you need to take extra steps such as adding more plastic for additional support. Even with all of these extra precautions taken, a soldered bumper is still susceptible to damage in the future. The crack may come apart, especially if you live in an area with many hills or speed bumps.

 Hot Stapler Repair Process

This unreliability is why we utilize a hot stapler repair system for our plastic bumper crack repairs. This system works by superheating a staple, which will be inserted at the seam of the crack in your car. This staple enables a strong hold and will allow the damaged area to set correctly for a longer-lasting repair. Once we have completed closing the crack and welding it together, we’ll remove the staple and close up any holes that it leaves behind. We’ll then move on to sanding and buffing the area for a smooth and seamless finish. We complete the process with a PPG paint job that perfectly matches your car’s original paint color for a flawless appearance that guarantees your car will look as good as new.
