Accurate color matching is one of the most important aspects of auto painting. At our auto paint shop in Alexandria, MN, we use professional paint systems and manufacturer color codes to ensure consistency. We've added a second paint booth to better serve you, our customers.

Bob at Northside was awesome!! I’d put him up against any claim adjuster to do what is right for the customer. Quick turn around. He finished the job in less then 2wks of approval. Would recommend Northside every time.
