Our Story & Commitment to Quality
Collision repair, paint matching, and dent removal — done right, on time, and with honest communication.
About Lost Pines Paint & Body
Lost Pines Paint & Body is a local crew working out of Bastrop, Texas, covering the Lost Pines region. Our shop sits at 2600 State Hwy 71, and we handle car repair and maintenance for folks in Bastrop, Smithville, Elgin, and the surrounding areas. The properties here vary from tight residential driveways to open rural lots, and the roads bring in everything from minor parking lot dings to collision damage from the highway. We know the local vehicles and the conditions they face—pine needles, gravel, and country roads. Our crew lives in this area, so we treat every car like it belongs to a neighbor.
When you call us, we listen to what happened and ask about the damage you can see. If it is a collision, we want to know if the car is drivable or needs a tow. We then schedule a time for you to bring it by or we come look at it. During the walk-around, we check every panel, the paint condition, and any hidden damage behind trim or bumpers. We explain what needs to happen and what is optional. The quote covers the labor, materials, and any paint matching. We tell you the steps and the timeline, and we do not push extras you do not need.
For bodywork, we use two-part urethane primers and high-build surfacers to level dents and repairs. We block-sand by hand to get the surface straight before paint. Our paint is a catalyzed urethane system, and we blend into adjacent panels for a seamless match. For dent removal, we work from behind the panel when possible to avoid filler. Welded repairs get treated with weld-through primer to stop rust. The difference between work that lasts and work that does not is in the prep—cleaning, sanding, and masking properly. We do not skip steps to save time.
Craftsmanship You Can Count On
When we work on your property, we set up in your driveway or on the street if the shop is full. We lay down drop cloths and plastic sheeting to protect your driveway and landscaping. We keep the work area clean and do not leave tools or parts lying around. There will be sanding dust and paint overspray contained with fans and filters, and we run vacuums on the sanders to keep the mess down. We clean up at the end of each day, and when the job is done, the only sign we were there is your car looking right.
