They have a scanner that they use, to do an exact color match.

Red is the one color that scanners don't work with as it is arguably the most difficult color to match. Hope they have some good eyes as the old fashion way is the best when it comes to red. Its amazing how differenent my repainted sails and mirrors are compared to the orignal color when looking at them up close. Step away 1 foot and they look like a perfect match still 5 years out. The painter (a good friend) tried 3 different color matched colors for it, none were as good as his eyes.
