Premium Auto Paint & Refinishing Services in Garland
Texas Five Star Paint & Body delivers custom paint and refinishing services in Garland, TX that transform everyday vehicles into head-turners and restore weathered finishes to showroom brilliance. Our climate-controlled downdraft spray booths and computerized color-matching spectrophotometers ensure every coat of paint - whether a factory-exact repair or a full custom respray - goes on perfectly smooth, free of dust, orange peel, and color variance. We exclusively use PPG and Axalta basecoat–clearcoat systems, the same premium waterborne and solvent-borne materials trusted by OEM manufacturers and championship-winning custom shops across the country.
Whether you want a deep candy apple red, a luminous three-stage pearl white, a satin matte finish, or simply need to restore your vehicle's original color after years of Texas sun exposure, our painters have the skill and technology to deliver stunning results. We offer complete surface preparation including chemical stripping, media blasting, epoxy priming, and high-build primer-surfacing to create a perfectly straight foundation before any color is applied. Every stage is block-sanded by hand to eliminate imperfections, because the quality of a paint job is only as good as what's underneath it.
Drivers across the DFW metroplex - from Garland, Mesquite, and Plano to Dallas, Fort Worth, and beyond - bring their daily drivers, show cars, and classic vehicles to our 214 Range Dr facility for refinishing work that rivals factory output. We stand behind every paint job with a written warranty, and our transparent process keeps you informed from color selection through final buffing and sealant options.

What We Offer
Factory Color Matching
Our computerized spectrophotometer reads your vehicle's existing paint and cross-references it against thousands of OEM formulas to produce an exact color match - even on faded, weathered, or multi-toned panels. We spray test panels and compare under daylight, fluorescent, and LED lighting to guarantee an invisible blend. This precision-matching process is essential for insurance repairs, partial refinishing, and spot corrections where the new paint must disappear seamlessly into the original finish.
Custom Colors & Finishes
From deep candy coats and multi-stage chameleon pearls to flat satin mattes and high-gloss metallics, our custom paint services let you define your vehicle's personality. We mix custom tints in-house using PPG and Axalta mixing banks, giving you access to virtually unlimited color options and specialty effects including flake, ghost graphics, and two-tone designs. Each custom finish is sealed under multiple layers of premium clearcoat for UV protection, chip resistance, and lasting depth of shine that turns heads at every car meet in the DFW area.
Paint Correction & Polishing
Years of automatic car washes, road debris, and harsh Texas sunlight take a toll on your vehicle's clearcoat, leaving behind swirl marks, water spots, oxidation, and micro-scratches. Our paint correction service uses a multi-stage machine polishing process - from heavy cutting compounds to ultra-fine finishing polishes - to remove defects and restore optical clarity to your finish. We finish with a protective sealant application that shields the corrected surface and keeps your paint looking freshly detailed for months to come.

Custom Paint & Refinishing FAQs
Can you match my car's exact factory color?
Yes. We use factory color-matching to identify your vehicle's original formula and blend it into surrounding panels so the repair is invisible against the rest of the car, even on metallics and pearls that shift under different light.
Can I get a custom color instead of my factory color?
Absolutely. Beyond factory matching, we handle custom colors and specialty finishes for owners who want to change their car's look entirely, from solid color changes to more involved custom finishes discussed during your color consultation.
What is paint correction and do I need it?
Paint correction removes swirl marks, light scratches, oxidation, and clouding from your existing clear coat through polishing, without a full repaint. It's a good option if your paint is intact but has lost its shine over the years and you want it looking new again.
How long does a custom paint job take?
A single panel or small area is often done in a few days. A full vehicle repaint, including proper surface preparation and multiple coats of clear coat and protection, typically takes about one to two weeks depending on the scope of prep work needed.
Will the new paint hold up over time?
Every paint job we perform, factory-match or custom, is backed by our 5-year warranty. Proper surface preparation is what makes paint last, so we don't skip steps just to speed up a job.
Do you offer paint protection after refinishing?
Yes. As part of the buffing and protection stage of our process, we can apply protective coatings to help the new finish resist swirling, minor scratches, and environmental damage going forward.
