For the custom paint option, customers can use either standard or True-Match color matching, available for $200 and $550, respectively. Both are effective options, and differ only in the way the color is approved by you. With the "standard" color matching package, we paint shutters before shipping based on a customer paint sample or number. The factory matches the color and does not send an advance color strike-off for approval by you.

By comparison, "True-Match" adds an extra step for recipients that requires you to send back approval once you have received a sample strike-off that the factory will mail to you. The factory has will include any leftover paint as well. The "True-Match" gives you the most control over the making sure the color matches exactly as you expected.
