Difficulty Matching Paint After Dent Repairs – Hyundai Tucson Problem

I recently got a dent fixed at an authorized Hyundai workshop in Pakistan, but the paint color doesn’t perfectly match the rest of the car. It’s especially noticeable in daylight. Is paint matching difficult for Tucson models, o r is this a common issue with local body shops?

Yes, matching paint after repairs can be difficult for Tucson owners in Pakistan. The reasons are:

Hyundai’s factory paint is heat-baked and applied in a controlled environment, which is hard to replicate in workshops.

Slight paint tone variation happens over time due to sun exposure and fading, making it difficult to match old paint with new.

Some authorized dealerships in Pakistan lack the advanced blending techniques used in international service centers.

To minimize mismatch:

Always demand panel blending, not just spot painting.

Inspect the job in natural sunlight before accepting delivery.

Choose reputable body shops with computerized color matching if your dealership lacks expertise.
