Computerized Paint Matching
One of the more frequently asked questions is "Will the paint match?" Paint matching has become a science in our industry. We have a computerized color imaging system that assists us with matching and mixing our paint to match your vehicle. Besides pigmentation, there are many factors that can change the color and shade of the paint, such as temperature, differences in air pressure, distances of the application appliance, to name a few. To ensure the closest possible match, we mix our own paint and blend to the adjacent panels of the damaged area so there is no noticeable difference.

We use Dupont ChromaVision! ChromaVision is a computerized color matching system that uses fiber optics to accurately read your vehicle's original finish. It’s advanced technology takes the guesswork out of color detection, to give you a precise match that perfectly restores your vehicle’s original luster and beauty. You can be assured that our paint work will meet the high standards we place on our work, and will be backed by Dupont paint warranty on the work we do, as long as you own the vehicle.

Used vs. Generic Parts
Our commitment to honesty and perfection means we will inform you on the process of repairs to your vehicle. We prefer to use dealer-manufactured parts (OEM parts), but if your insurance policy requires the use of after market parts, we will inform you. If the after market parts are not up to our caliber of specifications, we will not use them. Given the intricate qualifications of today’s insurance policies, the after market parts issue is between you and the insurance carrier. However, YOU and your vehicle are our main concern. We will do our best to keep you informed and satisfy your repair needs.
