Custom Paint & Refinishing
Auto Paint & Refinishing in Cutler Bay
Great paint is the difference between a repair you notice and one you don't. Marlin Motors is known across Cutler Bay for auto paint and refinishing that's dead-on to the factory color — full repaints, panel blends, and custom finishes applied in a controlled booth so the shine lasts.
Before After Color matching that actually matches
Color matching is the hardest part of a paint job to get right, and it's the detail our customers mention most. We use computerized matching and blend into the surrounding panels so you can't tell where the repair ends and the original finish begins.
From factory color to fully custom
Whether you need a single panel refinished after a repair or a complete custom respray, our Cutler Bay paint shop handles it — on daily drivers, classics, and exotics alike. Every paint and refinishing job is backed by our lifetime warranty.

Straight answers
Common questions
Can you match my car's factory color exactly?
Yes — we use computerized color matching and blend into the surrounding panels, so you can't tell where the repair ends and the original finish begins. It's the detail our reviews mention most.
Do you paint exotics and classics?
We do. Ferraris, Corvettes, classics, and daily drivers all get the same booth, the same materials, and the same attention to detail.
How long will the new paint last?
It's applied in a controlled booth with quality materials, and we back our paint work with a lifetime warranty for as long as you own the vehicle.
Are you open on Saturdays?
Yes — we’re open on Saturdays from 9:30 to 11:00 AM. Our regular hours are Monday through Friday, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM, and we’re closed on Sundays.
Behind the finish
The process & tools we use
A perfect color match isn't luck — it's a process. If you know paint, you'll recognize the equipment: we run Refinity color software with Glasurit® and R-M® paint end to end, from digital color scan to the final polish. Here's exactly what happens to your car in our paint shop.
-
1. Digital color scan
Factory color drifts with age and sun, so we never guess from a paint code. A spectrophotometer reads the exact color on your car — five precise measurements in about 30 seconds.
-
2. Computer color match
The scan is matched in Refinity®, BASF's cloud color software, against the industry's largest color database — down to the effect particles in metallic and pearl finishes.
-
3. Mixed to the gram
That formula is mixed on calibrated scales with Glasurit® and R-M® toners — the same premium paint systems the automakers themselves approve.
-
4. Sprayed in a sealed booth
Solvent-based basecoat and high-solids clearcoat go on in our temperature-controlled spray booth, blended into the surrounding panels so the repair disappears.
-
5. Cured, polished & inspected
The finish is cured, cut and polished, then checked against the neighboring panels in daylight before you ever see the car.
