These 5-star reviews show why North Texas drivers trust Ray Harris Paint and Body for paint matching, careful refinishing, and honest repair work.
Paint repair and paint matching are not always the same thing. A small chip or scratch may only need focused paint repair, but larger damage often needs color matching, refinishing, and blending into nearby panels. Since factory paint can fade over time, the paint code is only the starting point. Careful blending helps the repaired area look natural next to the rest of the vehicle.

Thank You Ray Harris My Corvette was hit in a parking lot and had some significant damage to the right quarter panel. Not only did Ray make the damage disappear, but he took care of some other issues that I was concerned about.

Have questions about paint and color matching? You’re not alone. Drivers often want to know how paint is matched, how blending works, and how to care for fresh paint after repair.
We start with your vehicle’s paint code, then use a computerized mixing system to create the formula. After that, we check the color with spray-out cards and make adjustments as needed before blending the repair into nearby panels.
When paint matching, clearcoat, and blending are done correctly, the repaired area should look natural next to the rest of the vehicle. Any visible difference usually comes from paint aging, sun fading, or previous repairs on nearby panels.
Fresh paint is usually dry enough to handle when you pick up your vehicle, but full curing can take 30–90 days, depending on the products used, weather, and repair conditions. During that time, gentle washing is best, and you should avoid harsh chemicals or waxing the repaired area.
Spot repair focuses on a smaller damaged area and blends the paint into the surrounding finish. Full-panel refinishing means sanding, prepping, and repainting the entire panel. For larger damage or hard-to-match colors, full-panel refinishing may give a cleaner long-term result.
Wash gently with a soft mitt and mild soap, avoid automatic brushes, and wait to use wax or sealant until the curing period is over. After that, regular washing and quality wax can help protect the finish.
Getting started is simple. Send us your contact information, choose the service you need, and upload photos of the damage if you have them. Ray Harris Paint and Body will review your information and follow up with the next steps for your paint and color matching estimate.
