Did you know that from 1914 to 1926 the Model T was available in just one color—black? Henry Ford once said “Any customer can have a car painted any color that he wants so long as it is black.” However, cars have long since been available in a vast array of colors.
Today’s car buyers face a complicated decision-making process when choosing the paintjob for their new vehicle. No longer are cars available only in a small range of pre-selected colors, but now customers can order customized exterior colors. Things get even more complex when dealing with premier luxury vehicles. For example, Bentley’s Mulsanne luxury sedan is available in more than 100 exterior shades!
Color matching is an increasing challenge in the auto industry. There are more than 60,000 unique vehicle colors around today and this number continues to grow. It is estimated that 1,000 new vehicle colors are added each year. Accordingly, the ability to correctly determine the right color for the job is one of the most important skills a refinisher can possess.
Sameday’s refinish technicians utilize a state-of-the-art color matching system to provide you the best refinish solution available. Our collection of color matching tools includes digital color measurement via high-tech photospectrometer and premium software which evaluates the electronically collected data and outputs a precise color formula in a matter of seconds. We guarantee a perfect paint match!

Overspray from highway road paint is a huge problem for anyone who happens to be the first driver on a newly striped roadway. If noticed within the first hour, highway paint can usually be removed with a simple pressure washing system. However, once the paint has set longer than 60 minutes, the removal process becomes extensive.
Road paint contains specialty reflective beads to help illuminate highway lines in the dark. However, these beads rapidly adhere to the automotive paint finish, making removal of the paint splatter a very daunting task. Often times when car owners try to clean the road paint off themselves, they unknowingly scratch their car’s surface. That’s why you should get help from a professional.
Sameday has an exceptional process for removing highway overspray without damaging your vehicle’s refinish coating. Our skilled technicians will restore your vehicle to perfect condition.

Did you know that in a short period of time a simple scratch or nick in your vehicle’s paint finish can begin rusting? Along comes wet, cooler temperatures and that small problem can rapidly escalate to a larger, more costly one. Luckily there is a solution. To avoid this expensive mistake, it is best to have paint chips and scratches repaired within 30 days.
Also, there is no need to repaint an entire vehicle panel just to eliminate minor nicks & scratches. It is more beneficial to the vehicle’s value to keep as much of the original factory finish intact. Rather than repainting the whole side of your vehicle, it is best to hire an expert technician who is able to perfectly match the paint color to repair only the damaged area. Keeping the repair area small eliminates unnecessary costs while maintaining your vehicle’s highest value, and preserving the vehicle finish.
Sameday provides premium refinishing services with a rapid one-day turnaround that will help you avoid long wait times that lead to costly repairs. After retrieving your vehicle’s paint code, our skilled technicians use state-of-the-art technology to perfectly match the paint color, then repaint the damaged area with high-end European paint and clearcoat. The finish is then baked-on with a high intensity infrared lamp, leaving your car ready to drive. With Sameday Repair you can avoid wasted time and needless effort on your part throughout the entire repair process. You can eliminate imperfections in your vehicle’s finish before they have a chance to become bigger by using Sameday’s expert color matching and precision painting process.
