cookj5 Posted February 3, 2023 Report Share Posted February 3, 2023 We're looking for local North Lake Shore paint stores who can do a good job mixing paint from samples brought in by the customer. We have several interior doors that need extensive touching up and want to ensure a good match. Please include precise locations/landmarks to find these places.Thanks in advance for any help.

Mainecoons Posted February 4, 2023 Report Share Posted February 4, 2023 The guys at PRISA are very good at matching by eye but that is no substitute for the paint stores that have the photo matching equipment specific to the brand of paint they sell. I was planning on stopping in that big Sherwin Williams paint store in Riberas and seeing if they have this capability. Home Depot in GDL used to have it but when I stopped in the new store on Lopez Mateos a few weeks back the guy said his Berel machine was broken and when I asked when it would be fixed he just shrugged. Planning on checking at the other HD further north on Lopez Mateos. Have gotten paint matching there in the past and it was quite accurate.

desafinada Posted February 4, 2023 Report Share Posted February 4, 2023 The large Sherwin Williams in Riberas next to R&R does an excellent job of paint matching. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tomgates Posted February 6, 2023 Report Share Posted February 6, 2023 Is there still a SW store just west of Ajijic? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferret Posted February 6, 2023 Report Share Posted February 6, 2023 Yes but it's VERY small by comparison. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mainecoons Posted February 6, 2023 Report Share Posted February 6, 2023 So since no one has indicated otherwise, I am assuming the Sherwin Williams in Riberas does not have a color analyzer either. Correct? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ferret Posted February 6, 2023 Report Share Posted February 6, 2023 I haven't even been in there yet because it's so new and it's about two blocks from my house. Why don't you go and check it out for us Mainecoons and give us a report. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mainecoons Posted February 6, 2023 Report Share Posted February 6, 2023 If I get down that way I will. However the traffic was already backed up from Ajijic to Walmart and this afternoon the Tapatios will be headed home. We're hiding out for the rest of the day. 😄 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PBandJ Posted February 10, 2023 Report Share Posted February 10, 2023 We used SW in Riberas for a color that didn't exist in their samples. It's a bit of an unusual shade and I wasn't holding out much hope. Long story short, the lady that did the match far exceeded our expectations. I testedi the color in a place where it wouldn't be noticed and it was a perfect match! She wrote down the color combo for us so that the next time we need it, we'll have it. SW paint isn't the cheapest, but you definitely get what you pay for. It's worth every centavo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
