Before & After, Old-School Restoration

Old-School Scooter Restoration

Before Better Times Emporium, a store in Village Landing on Plymouth's waterfront specializing in vintage items from the 1940s-1950s, recently brought me an antique scooter badly in need of restoration. We looked into what the original color scheme was, then sanded it down, primed, and painted it a red color similar to what it was when new. The final product was beautiful! Before After After

"Awesome help. I was so happy they took care of everything and calmed me down. Made a bad situation so much easier - thank you!!!"

Gloria H.

"They did a fantastic job at a good price and stand behind their work. (Nice to see pride and professionalism at a time that when we see less and less of it." (Service: painting)

Stewart R.

"I could not be more satisfied with any vendor I deal with. After 15 plus years of using Dennis and his company, the results have NEVER been anything but, 'Wow, how did you do that?' Great guy, exceptionally honest, fair in pricing, and the end result has never disappointed me. And no, I am not a relative, just a consumer who was lucky enough to find a gem in the car business. The MicroBlend team has taken care of my fleet of corporate vehicles for years. Want a surprise? Take your car, old restoration piece, etc. to this company. Great people and fantastic work."

Bobby A.

"AMAZING! Total pros from start to finish. Beautiful craftsmanship and great customer service." (Services: painting, body and trim)

Chris H.

"Excellent attention to detail and workmanship! I wish I knew of Dennis and the team of MicroBlend sooner. They're the definite alternative to the body shop. I had a nice-sized ding on my Jeep GC passenger door (courtesy of a not-so-nice customer in the Whole Foods parking lot...but that's a different story), and you can't even notice it now. They tried doing a small repair and were so honest about not being able to make that route work that they then went on to fix the door, and it still was inexpensive. I highly recommend the MicroBlend team for any car body work you have. Thanks guys!"

Karlo B.

"Had some rust repair done, along with a new rear bumper and some dents removed on my Honda Civic. Work was phenomenal. They told me everything that was going to be done and how it was going to be done. Definitely my number-one spot for any type of body work or rust repair from now on. Hard to come by a shop that does rust repair and paint work at the same location, as well as cutting and welding. Dennis and Mike are great at what they do, and they will do anything they can to make your car look good again and save money in your pocket."

Edson B.

"Great work! Fast and friendly workers who take pride in making your car look like new! I couldn’t have asked for better service and quality work for my vehicle!!"

John

"The service at MicroBlend should not go unnoticed! I took my car over to the shop after a minor collision to get their opinion of the damage. Even though they were in the middle of another project, they stopped what they were doing to help me. They took the time to listen and gave me a ton of helpful advice. I was able to get my car in right away and the damage was fixed within 2 days. I couldn’t believe how quickly I got it back AND it looked amazing!! There is no evidence of the prior body damage. It looks as good as new. I can’t say enough good things about the work done here! I wish all customer service still worked like these guys do! Highly impressed with their work and ethics!!"

Kristine T.

"They have done 3 jobs for me and I have been pleased with the work. Had one issue where some rust came back and they took care of it no charge." (Service: painting)

Steve

"I have no idea what sorcery these guys use but they're amazing! In about 30 minutes they made a pretty nasty scratch on my hood disappear. These guys are true professionals. This place should be your first stop for any scratch or dent on your vehicle!"

Matt F.

"Top-of-the-line business. When I had to repair auto body as well as mechanical problems on my wife's car, Jerry coordinated everything: body work, mechanical work, as well as insurance reimbursement. Folks at MicroBlend made it a painless experience for us...thanks to all!"

Jimmy M.

"I've had the pleasure of working with Dennis on more than one occasion. He's always offered the innovative and affordable approach to any paint issues I've had. Turn-around time is good and work is done right."

Kevin H.

"Picked my car up when I needed it to be ready. Everything was done to perfection. My car was even cleaned right down to the rims! Great workmanship and customer service. Fair pricing. Highly recommend."

Glenda F.

"Great results on fixing rear bumper. Good price and very responsive to all my concerns. Also, car was ready when they said it would." (Service: painting)

Paul S.

"Had my truck worked on: body work and fender flares added. The owner was very nice, extremely helpful, and the other employees were just as helpful. I would recommend them highly. I am now planning on bringing my wife’s car there." (Services: painting, body, trim)

Darren M.

"MicroBlend did phenomenal work on both my 2012 Honda Pilot and 1995 Miata. My 25-year Miata looked incredible. All the quality work was done at very reasonable prices. Highly recommend using them." (Services: painting, body, trim)

Andrew W.

"Definitely deserving of 5 stars. Dennis met me on time for my appointment for a quote, looked at the piece I needed repaired, and since it was a small job, he turned it around way more quickly than I expected. And to top it off, he was very friendly, professional, generous with his time, and an all-around pleasure to work with. Will definitely use MicroBlend's services again. Saved me over $400 on replacing a part by just fixing what I had."

Jim R.

"When someone backed into my Jeep and took off, leaving a piece of my car above my back tire flapping in the breeze, I was incredibly stressed it might end up being a big project to fix. I took it into Dennis at MicroBlend and he had it back on and fixed up in a matter of minutes. It's good as new and Dennis was incredibly kind and professional. I will be recommending MicroBlend to all friends and family in need of body work."

Lindsay P.

"This place was amazing! They saw me the same day I called about some scratches on my car. I went in and they immediately checked it out. After checking my car, he told me to wait, came out, buffed them all out no charge. I got a fast and reasonable estimate on some other dings I had on my car too! They were super nice and attentive, and I’m so glad I went there. 10/10 experience!!" (Service: painting)

Olivia C.

"These guys did amazing work on my 2005 Wrangler! Welded in new metal and blended it in perfectly!"

Erik A.

"If you live on the South Shore or anywhere near, it's worth the extra drive to visit Paul & Dennis at MicroBlend. Honest work, clear communication, and great attention to detail. Don't settle for a slightly cheaper alternative, who will inevitably cut a few corners. Go with MicroBlend Body Shop and sleep well, knowing you did it right the first time. No matter your make of car – BMW, Audi, Ford, etc. - these guys will take care of you."

Jack

"I found this place by recommendation while vacationing in Plymouth with 4 kids. I had a little fender bender and needed help quickly. MicroBlend took me right away, fixed my problem within minutes, and did not charge me anything! Top-notch service, honesty, and empathy. Highly recommend!"

Torrie P.

"The folks at MicroBlend did a fantastic job of repairing/repainting the front bumper on my 2021 Frontier. Price was about a third of what the body shops would have charged. Work was completed in about one day, and the vehicle was cleaner inside and out than when I dropped it off!" (Services: painting, body, trim)

Sarah F.

"I have used MicroBlend for very minor repair items in the past and have always been completely satisfied. Last month, my son came to Plymouth for a visit from out of state and arrived with a couple of minor road damages to his car, which he planned to take care of when he returned home. I encouraged him to take the car to MicroBlend. He met Dennis on a busy Tuesday morning. Dennis explained what he could do and couldn't do and provided a reasonable quote. My son explained that he was planning to return home on Friday, but could stay until Saturday if necessary. The car was ready on Thursday afternoon, the work exceeded his expectations, and the price was exactly as estimated. Now two of us can recommend MicroBlend!" (Services: painting, body, trim)

Debbie & David K.

"I’d give them a 10 if I could. They replaced a piece on my car and didn’t charge me labor. The price was also cheaper than I had been quoted at a different shop. In addition, they buffed out a scratched area until I could afford to come back and have it repaired. What sets them apart is how nice they are to their customers. They answer your questions and go out of their way to help so you’ll come back. I can’t say enough about MicroBlend and would highly recommend them!" (Services: body, trim)

Paula B.

"I brought my 21 Jeep Wrangler here after getting into an accident. Paul and Dennis made this difficult process as easy as they possibly could. Parts took forever (as everything does in these days of Covid), but Paul was sure to contact me with an update at least once a week. They were both extremely courteous and professional, and my car was even washed upon pick up! I recommend MicroBlend, and appreciate the level of customer service provided by both Paul and Dennis during such a trying time."

Kimberly B.

"This place is incredible. I highly recommend you go here! Had the front end of my car damaged from a big pothole, fender was cracked from bottoming out. In a matter of two days, they completed the repair and repainted it just like new!"

Etienne B.

"MicroBlend’s work is flawless, with reasonable prices. Our car looks the same as when we first saw it at the dealership. If we need an auto body shop in the future, we know where we would go to."

Cihan B.

"True to their word, excellent work, friendly, and accommodating!! Had 4 quotes around Plymouth, reporting my goals when requesting each quote, and Paul was the only one that listened! Experience was quick and easy, very pleasant! Definitely recommend and hopefully won’t need them again anytime soon, but will definitely be back if needed!"

Caitlin C.

"Paul and Dennis are EXCELLENT! They provide outstanding customer service, are always happy, and their workmanship is fantastic! AND, their pricing is extremely fair and the lowest anywhere around. Based on a recommendation, I traveled from W. Springfield to Plymouth to use them. I can't say enough good things about MicroBlend and would highly recommend using them. I won't go anywhere else!" (Services: painting, body, trim)

Susan M.

"Very efficient, performed excellent work. They cleaned my car thoroughly after performing body work, so it looks brand new inside and out. Will use again and recommend to friends." (Services: body, trim)

Pat L.

"I had them repair rust spots on the right rear of my wife's jeep. They did a fantastic job. They even cleaned the car after the repair. Great people to deal with at an excellent price."

George B.

"Amazing!!! Don’t even know where to start. Honest and friendly. Don’t try to sell stuff you don’t need! I needed some rust fixed; honestly, I love it! I paid for a job, then they said don’t worry about that piece of rust - you have at least a year before it’ll need to be done. Saved me money until it’s necessary! Thank you!" (Services: painting, body, trim)

Loretta C.

"Amazing!!! Don’t even know where to start. Honest and friendly. Don’t try to sell stuff you don’t need! I needed some rust fixed; honestly, I love it!

Jackson

"I had a large dent in the back of my SUV. A body shop quoted me $3,000 to repair it. I took my car to MicroBlend in Plymouth and they did a beautiful job fixing the dent for under $1,000. Wonderful people to deal with, excellent service, and excellent workmanship. I am so pleased."

Marilyn H.

"MicroBlend was recommended by a coworker for their great work at an affordable price. The process was blissful, no issues, and the staff (Paul and Dennis) were great at communicating and giving a great quote for the damage to my vehicle. The price did not change after the quote, and getting a rental car for the two days it took was a very easy process as well. I highly recommend them. I was very satisfied with the customer service provided."

Kenzie B.

"I’m very pleased with the work MicroBlend Plymouth just completed on the front fender of my car. I’d received body shop estimates of $2,700-$3,000 to replace the fender through insurance. MicroBlend did the repair for less than half that cost, and they did it in 3 days. Great shop and easy to work with. I highly recommend these guys." (Service: body, trim)

Steve F.

"First time going to these guys, and I wasn't disappointed. They were very thorough and explained everything in great detail while providing many options. My car color is not what you would call normal, but they were able to match it. They went beyond my expectations, and I would certainly suggest them to anyone looking for an alternative for their various body/paint repairs." (Service: painting)

Brodie H.

"We are extremely happy with the finish work on the repair. Our ole girl (2013 4Runner) looks like new. Paul and Dennis were extremely helpful all the way through the process and navigating insurance. Thank you!" (Service: body and trim)

Frank M.

"I recently had the pleasure of working with MicroBlend, and I must say that I am absolutely amazed and thoroughly pleased with the incredible work they did. I entrusted them with fixing the chipping paint and rust spots on both of my quarter panels, and they truly exceeded my expectations. They managed to make my red Camaro look brand new, as if nothing had ever happened. I couldn't be happier with the results. One of the aspects that impressed me the most about MicroBlend was their attention to detail. The repairs were executed flawlessly, and the level of craftsmanship was outstanding. They not only fixed the issues but also ensured that the overall appearance of my car was restored to its former glory. It's truly a testament to their expertise and dedication to their craft. Moreover, the customer service provided by MicroBlend was exceptional. Despite having to reschedule my appointment twice, I was greeted with understanding and kindness. I was initially nervous that they might be annoyed, but they were incredibly accommodating and made me feel valued as a customer. The team at MicroBlend consists of genuinely nice people who go above and beyond to ensure customer satisfaction. To my surprise, they didn't just stop at the exterior repairs. When I received my car back, I found that the inside had been thoroughly cleaned as well. This attention to detail and going the extra mile truly made a difference. It's evident that MicroBlend takes pride in their work and strives to deliver a comprehensive service that goes beyond expectations. As someone who takes great pride in my car, Microblend truly lifted a significant weight off my shoulders. They not only restored my vehicle's appearance but also restored my confidence in its condition. I am beyond pleased with their work and would not hesitate to recommend Microblend to anyone in need of automotive repairs. My experience with them was nothing short of exceptional, and I will certainly be spreading the word about their remarkable service. In conclusion, Microblend is a top-notch auto repair shop that delivers outstanding results. Their craftsmanship, attention to detail, and exceptional customer service set them apart. If you're looking for a company that can bring your vehicle back to its former glory, look no further than MicroBlend. They truly exceeded my expectations, and I am grateful for the amazing work they did on my car."

Nick A.

"I always hear MicroBlend’s ads on Easy 99.1 and have used them to bring my car back to that ‘just purchased’ look. However, after a run-in with one of ‘Massachusetts’ finest drivers,’ I brought the car over for a complete repair. (MicroBlend is also a fully licensed body shop.) As always, they did a GREAT job on the fix and with no annoying paperwork challenges!"

Bill M.

"MicroBlend did a great job fixing the dent on my car. From start to finish, the shop manager made sure everything went according to plan, and the guys who worked on my car did a great job. The final result exceeded my expectation. I highly recommend them." (Services: painting, body, trim)

Jennifer A.

"Very quick and efficient work; very happy with the quality of service!" (Service: body and trim)

Randy J.

"Had some scuff marks on my rear bumper and after Micro Blend worked their magic, it looks like new! Not only that, they cleaned my car inside and out! Very reasonably priced. THANK YOU! Excellent work!"

Leah K.

"I brought my car to MicroBlend because I was in an accident with body damage. Not only was Paul professional but also helpful and courteous. I felt very comfortable with my car in their care. When my car was returned, I was most impressed by how shiny and new it looked. I would highly recommend MicroBlend without hesitation."

Susan B.

"I had an amazing experience with MicroBlend! I had two issues that I needed help with, and they solved both for a fraction of the cost I had been quoted for only one problem. The paint of my entire hood was peeling, and I also had a damaged bumper. They worked with me and my insurance company and gave me an extremely good price for both. The final cost was exactly what they had quoted for me. The car looks brand new, maybe even better than when I bought it! They also detailed the entire inside beautifully, which is a great bonus. I am thankful for their hard work and especially their kindness."
