Painting & Restoration

Color is measured, mixed, blended, and buried in clear by refinish-certified painters. The repair should be impossible to find.

Matte green luxury SUV with flawless fresh finish

Paint is where a repair either disappears or announces itself forever. F1's refinish-certified painters measure your exact color, blend it into the surrounding panels, and bury it in clear — the repair should be impossible to find.

What's included

What we do

Measured color match

Your exact paint is measured and matched, not eyeballed from a code.

Blending

Color feathered into surrounding panels so there is no visible edge.

Multi-stage & pearl

Tri-coat whites, pearls, and mattes handled with the extra stages they need.

Questions

Common questions

Will the new paint match exactly?

Yes. Color is measured from your vehicle and blended into adjacent panels, which is how a match becomes invisible — even on aged paint.

Can you match pearl and multi-stage finishes?

Yes. Tri-coat whites, pearls, and mattes take extra stages, and they get them.

How long does paint work take?

Depends on panels involved and cure times — rushing paint shows. You get an honest timeline with your estimate.

…My car is metallic white, which is a very difficult color to match perfectly — but they absolutely nailed it. The paint match is flawless. It looks completely natural, and you would never be able to tell the car had any damage or repaint done. The finish blends perfectly with the original factory paint. They were extremely professional, very fair with pricing, and most importantly — on time. Everything was completed exactly when they promised. The entire team was friendly, honest, and great to work with. From quality to communication to timing, I'm 100% satisfied. I highly recommend F1 Collision to anyone who wants their car repaired the right way.

Ryan is very helpful, he handled my claim professionally, I was expecting to get my car back in 1 month but he got it done a little more than 2 weeks. Strongly recommend bodyshop. Thank you Ryan!

Rayan was a great help from start to finish. Brought in my BMW 330i with major damages to the front bumper and front rim. He gave me a great a price for the entire job. He also completed the entire project in less than a week. I would highly recommend him to anyone and everyone. Thank you again Rayan for the amazing work.
