Project preparation

What should I bring to the paint store?

The more context you bring, the better the conversation can be. Choose the project and save a practical checklist for the trip to D&S.

D&S counter checklist

Automotive project

For a repair, repaint, restoration or custom vehicle conversation.

  • Year, make and model
  • Paint code if known
  • VIN information where useful
  • Photos of the vehicle and repair area
  • Painted sample or removable component where appropriate
  • Repair location and approximate repair size
  • Existing finish or previous repair information
  • Desired result: match, touch-up, repair or complete repaint
  • Spray equipment or compressor information if you already have it
This checklist helps organize a conversation; it does not replace the current manufacturer technical data sheet for a selected product or system.
Still not sure?

Bring the project to the counter.

A photo, a sample and the information you have are enough to start a useful conversation. D&S serves Pueblo from 715 West Street, Pueblo, CO 81003.
