What is the RestorFX treatment?
RestorFX is an advanced paintwork restoration process. Unlike a simple cosmetic polish, it works deep into the paintwork to correct visual imperfections and restore a more uniform surface.
In particular, the treatment helps to:
-
significantly reduce micro-scratches and superficial marks,
-
correctoxidation caused by humidity and weather conditions,
-
restore depth and shine to the paintwork,
-
provide long-lasting protection for the bodywork against external damage.
In Nantes, this solution is particularly well suited to vehicles exposed to damp, sea spray and the changing weather conditions of the Atlantic coast.

Why choose RestorFX in Nantes?
The RestorFX treatment in Nantes addresses the local challenges faced by many motorists in Loire-Atlantique. Ambient humidity and oceanic weather conditions contribute to the oxidation of the clear coat and a gradual dulling of the paintwork.
Choosing RestorFX at our Shiftech Nantes centre means opting for:
-
an effective alternative to a full repaint, without lengthy downtime,
-
an ideal solution for restoring dull or oxidised paintwork,
-
a long-lasting treatment, perfectly suited to everyday vehicles,
-
a service carried out by trained technicians, following a rigorously controlled procedure.
RestorFX therefore helps to preserve your vehicle’s appearance in the long term, whilst retaining the original paintwork.
