Auto paint & refinishing in Scottsdale

Panel repairs, respray work and color matching, refinished in our own booth in Scottsdale.

Matching color to the car, not to the code

Every vehicle carries a paint code, and it is only the starting point. Cars fade. Arizona fades them faster and less evenly than almost anywhere — a roof and a hood take years of near-vertical sun that a lower door never sees.

So the code gives a formula, and then the color is matched to the panel actually in front of us. Metallics and pearls add a further complication: they change appearance with viewing angle and with the way the paint is laid down, so two technically identical mixes can still look different on the car.

Blending

A repaired panel is rarely painted in isolation. The color is carried into the adjacent panels and faded out, so the transition happens in the middle of a surface where the eye does not go looking, rather than stopping abruptly at a panel gap where it would be obvious.

This is the difference between a repair you cannot find and one you can see from across the car park.

Arizona sun is the real test

Refinish work here has a harder life than almost anywhere. Preparation and clear coat matter more, not less, and a repair that looked acceptable in a booth can show up badly after a couple of summers if the groundwork was rushed.

Our refinishing workmanship — peeling, blistering, cracking, loss of adhesion, and color match on panels we refinished — is covered for as long as you own the vehicle. The warranty page sets out the exclusions.
