“Our new Color Information Maps are a great addition to our lineup of body shop tools,” said Willman. Additionally, the maps can be used to provide customers with a wide variety of color options when selecting a finish. Professionals can search for colors by family, or match colors without a code. Valspar Automotive Color Information Maps are available in three different color books to represent solid colors, single stage colors and base coat effect colors. “We’re pleased to offer this tool to our customers.” “Body shops must adhere to a high standard when it comes to detail, and this resource empowers those shops to easily make an exact match for the color they need,” said Willman. This means body shops can benefit from making the best color match possible with less rework and optimized profitability. The user-friendly interface ensures anyone in the body shop can use the Spectrophotometer to make an accurate color match. It is a versatile alternative when compared to other color matching tools in the market, offering a Smart Formulation Option that ensures a color match can be made in a variety of lighting conditions. The Valspar Automotive Spectrophotometer offers a precise color match with the click of a button, even colors that prove difficult to match. “Valspar Automotive prides itself on providing the best in color-matching technology, support and service.” “These new tools were developed with extensive input from body shop professionals and address the critical need of depicting how a particular automotive finish will look,” said Peter Willman, General Manager of Valspar Automotive. The Valspar Color Information Maps allow professionals to match colors using chips that are sprayed with Valspar Automotive paint to accurately depict the applied finish. Valspar Automotive Spectrophotometer takes color matching a step further by providing a computer-based interface that works with Valspar Color Software to instantly formulate solid base coat colors and also calculates and displays color match accuracy on effect colors. I found the paint quality to be very high for the price.Valspar Automotive recently introduced two new tools that make it easier for auto body professionals to match colors more accurately. It wasn’t perfect, but was slightly less yellow and I liked the effect more than the original which I always thought was a bit too yellow. The match ended up being very, very close. Plus, I was planning to repaint all the white in my daughter’s room, so if the colour was slightly different, it didn’t really matter. I was a bit sceptical, but at literally half the price, I thought I’d give it a try. The guy at the paint desk at HD said that Behr has taken BM’s most popular colours (White Dove is one of them) and has re-created formulas that create better colour matches using their paints. In any case, I thought I’d try to have Home Depot match White Dove using Behr paint. But then I end up with all this left over paint. I do love their paint, but I knew I’d only need half a gallon - the difference between buying 2 quarts and a gallon is $10, so it doesn’t make sense to buy the quarts. I wanted to refresh 2 walls in my daughter’s room and just didn’t feel like spending the $80 for a can of BM. I love the colour White Dove from Benjamin Moore and I almost always go with a local BM dealer for my paint. I just asked about colour-matching at Home Depot.
