Steps when in an Accident

1.

Make sure everyone is safe. Move to a safe spot if you can, turn on your hazards, and call 911 if anyone is hurt.

2.

Document the scene. Take photos of all vehicles, the damage, license plates, and the area around you. Get the other driver's name, phone number, insurance, and policy number.

3.

Call us for a tow — 24/7, (760) 790-5252. We'll tow your vehicle straight to our shop, so you don't pay twice to move it.

4.

File your claim. Call your insurance company and tell them you've chosen Tucker Auto Body. You don't need their approval to choose your shop.

Precision Color Matching with Automatchic Vision

Smartphone cameras are not accurate enough for professional automotive color matching. For reliable results, shops use the **AkzoNobel Automatchic Vision**—a compact spectrophotometer often called a color “camera.”

Typical workflow:
1. Properly prepare the measurement area on the vehicle.
2. Take 2–4 readings with the Automatchic Vision.
3. Sync the data wirelessly to AkzoNobel’s **MIXIT** cloud software.
4. MIXIT searches a database of over 2 million colors and returns the best Autowave formula.
5. Mix the color and verify on a test panel before applying to the vehicle.

This digital process is faster and more consistent than traditional chip matching, reducing rework, material waste, and cycle time.
