Dealing with colour variation

Almost as soon as painted plastic components became common, the issue of apparent colour variations seemed to follow. Typically, this appears as a slight mismatch of colour between a bumper and adjacent body panels and it’s often seen on brand new vehicles. Owners tend not to notice any anomaly until an accident puts the focus directly on that area. This is why it’s super important to cover off on the phenomenon with the owner before repairs commence, as well as using a refinish process that you can rely on to achieve a factory finish or better.
