Paint, color matching and scratch repair

A repair is only finished when the paint is. We refinish damaged panels with factory color codes and blend into the panels next to them, so the repair disappears.

BeforeAfter

Lexus GX, rear door and quarter panel

Every car's paint ages a little differently in the sun, which is why matching from the code alone is not enough. We mix by code, then spray test cards and compare them against your car in daylight before any panel is painted.

Scratches that are through the clear coat, keyed panels, peeling clear coat and bumper scuffs are all refinish jobs. We sand, prime, base-coat and clear-coat in a controlled environment, then cut and polish so the texture matches the factory finish.

We also handle complete panel repaints after a replacement, and multi-panel refinishing for cars with sun damage or a previous bad paint job.

What is included

  • Factory color code mixing and spray-out test cards
  • Blending into neighboring panels
  • Scratch, key mark and clear-coat repair
  • Bumper cover refinishing
  • Single-panel and multi-panel repaints
  • Cut and polish to match the factory texture

Common questions

Can you match metallic and pearl colors?

Yes. Metallics and pearls need blending because the flake lies differently depending on spray angle; blending into the next panel is how we make the transition invisible.

How long does paint take to cure?

The car is drivable when you pick it up. Avoid automatic car washes with brushes and waxing for about 30 days while the clear coat fully hardens.

Will insurance pay for blending?

Blending into adjacent panels is a standard line on insurance estimates when it is needed for a proper match. We include it where it belongs and explain it to the adjuster.
