PAINT QUESTIONS

WILL MY PAINT MATCH?

Color matching is not an easy task. However, our paint technicians are very good at color matching. Mudgett’s paint staff has over 55 years of combined experience. That said paint matching is part science and part art as it is not exact. We use a number of techniques to accomplish proper color matching, including spraying test panels, blending adjacent panels, color tinting with a color camera, and working closely with our paint supply representative for certain tough color match problems. The bottom line is that in the end Mudgett’s will make sure the paint job is done professionally and that you will not be able to discern a difference.
