Off shade Paint Job

[Yuki13]

Just had a rear bumper repainted. Off parin ang shade after 3 attempts ng casa. Sabi saken they used the correct paint code naman, now I'm still unhappy about the results and wondering why can't they get the color matched perfectly. I do understand that bumpers are a little bit darker than the body, but mine is way darker than the rest of the car at certain angles.

How do I instruct the casa to get the metallic density correct?

how old is the car? just following the paint code will not always guarantee exact match. you need a good painter that knows how to mix and/or blend colors.

Sir 9 months na yung car.

I told them to adjust the mix to a lighter shade. Naka tatlong balik na yung auto mali parin.

Acceptable na ba yan?

Ang alam ko, aside from paint code, they are also weighing the paints for proper mixture, and also they are matching it for the faded color also, hindi pa ganun kagaling sir mga pintor sa casa na napuntahan mo.

Kaya nga eh. Yung 3rd attempt sabi nila ni-compare muna sa katabing panel bago bugahan, ganyan parin result.

So ipabalik ko na lang?

have you noticed, the most common complaint regarding paint shade mismatch, involves the plastic bumper versus the rest of the (metal) panels..?

^sir i'll ask them to try adjusting the gun distance next try. ano yung 2 mist / drop coat? I want to give specific instructions na para umayos.

If static is the reason then the humidity of the paint area must be controlled.. And also, the nozzle and the compressor must be connected to ground..

Kasi pag labas rin lang ng paint sa nozzle, may static build up na yan, then yun na nga, due to the component of the bumper, hindi madischarge yung energy ng paint unlike sa metal na discharged sya upon landing..

One of the best ways in controllng static is humidity control.

ilayo po ng 1ft ang spray gun para po mag dry spray at umibabaw ang metallic para mag light ang kulay, kasi po kapag masyadong wetcoat ang buga ay lumulubog at nalilibing ang metallic kaya po nagdadark ang kulay, pero kapag masyadong malayo ang shade baka kailanggan din mag adjust ang kulay
