Auto Paint Repair and Refinishing

Auto paint repair restores a vehicle's finish after scratches, panel damage, or collision work, using paint codes and color matching so the repair blends into the rest of the car. Podium refinishes in a downdraft booth at both shops.

Color Matching and Refinishing

A good repaint is invisible, which comes down to color matching and blending. We pull the factory paint code and match it to how the color has aged on your vehicle.

How it works

The Process Step by Step

01

Match

We pull the paint code and match the aged color.

02

Prep

Panels are masked and prepared.

03

Spray

Refinished in the downdraft booth.

04

Blend

New paint is blended into adjacent panels.

Scope

Spot Repair Versus Full Panel

Not every scratch needs a full repaint. Depending on the depth and location, we spot-repair where it is correct or refinish the full panel where blending demands it, which keeps the repair clean and the cost reasonable. The same booth handles collision and bumper work.

Questions

Auto Paint FAQ

Will the new paint match my existing color?+
Professional refinishing uses paint codes, color matching and blending decisions to make the repair look natural on the vehicle.
Can you repair scratches without repainting the whole car?+
Often, yes. The right approach depends on scratch depth, panel location and whether the clear coat, base coat or primer is damaged.
Do you repaint bumpers and panels?+
Yes. Auto paint repair can include bumper covers, panels, spot repairs and refinishing after collision work.
How long does automotive paint take to cure?+
Your vehicle is safe to handle after the repair, and full cure and care instructions are provided at pickup.
