Bro if the car is old then the paint is got to be matched manually as it fades away / losses its shine / gloss
Treat others the way you want to be treated
Strange, how would the color code be same of a brand new car and a 10 year old car, it will be a mis match, he has to match the paint manually or a huge difference would be seen, go to the shop and tell him to show you the color and see if it matches the car's original paint
So today when i was at the tyre shop in tariq road i saw a small denter shop and a rolled up car, when i saw it first i thought that it is a mehran, i ignored and continued my work, while waiting for the tyre guy to fix my tyre up, i again noticed and after looking continously for 5 mins, i realized that it was a half cut Vigo . Then inside i saw a complete new body from front to cabin being welded into an the rear :-# . and the work was so good, it was barely undetectable
about sanding - if you can actually feel or see the sanding marks then your painter is sloppy or he is spraying dry, Final sanding pass before paint is done with a 2000 or even 4000 paper on a proper backing slab depending on the painting system - 2000 paper gives you a scratch that you cannot see or even feel with human touch, you need a ruby or emerald tipped RA tester to feel the tooth.
Ever seen a show car being painted
Bhai jaan, I will post pictures once it's done.. Aap batana phir. and it was completely matching the fuel tank cover.

The color code was found online. The paint was hindered with manually to ensure paint matching.
Well in that case its good, i remember when i went to the paint shop to get my vitz paint made, it took us 1 hour to perfectly match the paint, the color was very hard to match as it was lilac
Man this guy was a professional. He has this small shop but his work id amazing

Now you can't sell a car , which is almost 1-3 years old , considered as brand new in Pakistan , as fully sprayed on full / market prices , that's where the dealers lie , the selling part
To keep the thread alive....
