The most common types of paintwork damage
are stone chips, scratches, and marks on the
edges of wings, doors and bumpers.
IMPORTANT

Only allow an authorised workshop to carry
out paint repairs. An authorised Volvo work-

To avoid the onset of rust, damaged paintwork
should be rectified immediately.
