Car Scratch Repair Cyprus | Nicosia, From EUR 80
You can fix a car scratch in Cyprus two ways: do it yourself with colour-matched touch-up paint, or let us respray the panel for an invisible finish. At Pinelaki in Nicosia, professional scratch repair starts from EUR 80, and we've been colour-matching paint since 1991. Here's how each option works so you can pick the right one.
How much does car scratch repair cost in Cyprus?
Professional scratch repair at Pinelaki starts from EUR 80, depending on how deep the scratch is, the panel, and whether it needs a full respray. A DIY touch-up costs only the price of the paint. For an exact figure, use our free AI damage estimator or see our price list.
Option 1: Fix the scratch yourself (DIY)
For light, shallow scratches — the kind that have not cut through to primer or metal — a colour-matched touch-up is often all you need. You'll need two things, both in our shop:
- Touch-up paint matched to your car's exact factory colour code.
- Clear coat touch-up to seal and add gloss over the colour.
Not sure of your paint code? Find it with our paint code guide by brand and model. Apply the colour in thin layers, let it dry, then finish with the clear coat. For a full walkthrough, read DIY touch-up vs professional repair.
Option 2: We respray it for an invisible finish (expert)
For deeper scratches — through the clear coat into the primer or metal, or across a body line — a proper respray is the only way to make the scratch truly disappear. Here is exactly what we do at Pinelaki:
- Fill the scratch: we apply body filler (putty) over the damage, then sand it flat.
- Prime: we apply primer over the repair and sand again to a factory-smooth surface.
- Prepare and mask: we clean, degrease, and mask off the surrounding areas.
- Spray-booth respray: the panel goes into our professional spray booth, where we respray it in your exact colour, matched with a spectrophotometer, and finish with clear coat.
The result blends seamlessly into the surrounding panels — backed by our 6-year paint warranty, the longest in Cyprus. Learn more about how we match your colour in the science of colour matching.
Which option should you choose?
- Choose DIY if the scratch is light, in the clear coat only, and you can barely feel it (or not at all) with a fingernail.
- Choose a respray if the scratch is deep, reaches primer or bare metal, is long, or sits on a visible panel where a perfect match matters.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can a deep scratch be fully removed?
Yes — a deep scratch that reaches primer or metal is filled, primed, and resprayed in a booth so it blends invisibly. A DIY touch-up will seal and hide it, but a respray is what makes it truly disappear.
Will the touch-up paint match my car exactly?
Our touch-up paint is mixed to your car's factory colour code, so it matches the original. Over years of sun, existing paint fades slightly, which is why a professional respray blends into neighbouring panels for a perfect result.
Do I need the clear coat as well as the colour?
Yes. The colour coat needs a clear coat over it for gloss and protection — that's why we offer the clear coat touch-up alongside the paint.
How long does a professional scratch respray take?
Most single-panel scratch resprays take 1-3 working days, depending on the damage and paint curing time.
