Restoring your vehicle to its former glory involves more than just repairs – it's about preserving its original aesthetic appeal. Our auto body shop takes pride in the art and science of color matching, ensuring that every paint job seamlessly blends with your vehicle's existing hue. Below, we explain how color match auto painting works. When you need painting services for your car in Charlotte, NC, or the surrounding areas, don’t delay calling Deluxe Paint & Body Works.

How We Find the Right Color

Our professional technicians start by identifying the vehicle's color code, which can be located on the identification plate or in the owner's manual. They examine and recreate the precise hue and finish using specialized color databases or digital color matching equipment. They may also make actual paint samples to compare to existing paint and tweak the color composition as needed to get a seamless match. 

Painting Techniques

Our professionals begin by thoroughly prepping the surface, ensuring that it is clean, smooth, and free of flaws. They use a paint booth to prevent contamination and create an even finish when applying the paint. With modern spray guns and equipment, paint adhesion is improved and overspray is reduced. They may use blending techniques to ensure a perfect color match, feathering the new paint into the previous finish to make a seamless transition. Clear coat treatment and polishing are common finishing processes used to achieve a uniform sheen and a factory-fresh look. 

Color Match Auto Painting in Charlotte

When a portion of a vehicle is damaged, you shouldn’t have to repaint the entire car. At Deluxe Paint & Body Works, we’ve invested in the education and technology necessary to provide color match auto painting. This technique ensures we only have to paint the damaged area of a vehicle after it is smoothed out, seamlessly blending it with the unaffected portion of the vehicle. Your car will look as if it was never hit at all when it leaves our Charlotte car painting shop.
