that usually doesn't matter to match about matching.. i used to work at a few body shops & a custom hot rod shop & everytime we did touch ups or whatever they used the laser scanner thing to get a perfect match of the paint & then they usually take the code back, put it in the computer & then the computer does the perfect match... dont worry about the color match too much.. you'll be fine bro!

yeah but what about the older paint that isnt being tuched up that sat in the sun to long and got faded? as said b4

Perfect matct got it back last night. ofcourse ive been working so havent had the chance to take pictures in daytime..

few minor spots popped up from the thick clearcoat between the baking wich will be removed polished out next week,

it really looks awesome. when i drove it home i kept looking at the road via the hood.. its so shiny tehehe.

what they do is use a thing that looks like a gun or whatever & take a reading of the paint ON THE CAR.. usually the top or trunk ect. .. this way it will all be perfect match..


i'm glad your paint jod turned out well! it's to be expected to have a little bit of dirt in the clear coat right outta the booth.. it's almost virtually impossible to avoid it.. block sanding & buffing will take all that out & make her shine better than the day ya bought her!!

How much did the paint job run you ? im interested in getting the same areas repainted on my car too

[DanishStallion]

1400 + 250 deductible at fine line collision ( www.finelineofvero.com )

guy at fineline restores old mustangs ( forgot his name ) 68 ( ealanor clone ) and 71 mach 1 i think hes working on atm

1200 estimate at velde ford vero beach. but my insurance recommended fineline.
