Auto painting intake that asks what your shop needs to know
Ask every vehicle owner about paint work type, collision history, and repair timeline, then collect panel photos and color-code details before the lead lands in your CRM.
The exact intake your auto painting leads complete
This is the real 6-question guided intake for Auto Painting — the same flow your customers finish before you ever pick up the phone.
What a qualified auto painting lead should tell you
Vehicle paint work ranging from a full repaint to a single-panel touch-up or post-collision color match, where the intake needs to know the type of paint work, whether it follows a body repair, and whether the original color code is known.
- Paint Work Vehicle
- This Paint Work Related
- Know Original Paint Color
- Owner Or Authorized Approve
- Many Vehicles Painting
- Soon Painting Work Done
The questions your team needs answered
Every auto painting intake asks these — and why each one matters.
| Question | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| What type of paint work does your vehicle need? | The type of paint work selected tells your shop how much bay time and material to plan for before the vehicle arrives. |
| Is this paint work related to a recent collision or body repair? | A yes answer signals the paint work is tied to a body repair, so it can be routed alongside collision or insurance estimate handling rather than booked as a standalone job. |
| Do you know the original paint color code, or do you need color matching? | Needing on-site color matching flags extra booth time your estimator should account for when quoting the job. |
| Are you the owner or authorized to approve this repair? | Confirming the caller can approve the repair avoids holding a bay slot for someone who still needs sign-off from the actual owner. |
| How many vehicles need painting? | A fleet or multi-vehicle answer distinguishes a commercial account from a single walk-in and can change who follows up on the lead. |
| How soon do you need the painting work done? | An immediate timeline tells your scheduler to open a bay sooner rather than treating the lead as flexible. |

Built for auto painting workflows
| Cliont capability | Auto Painting application |
|---|---|
| Weighted answer scoring | Full repaints and post-collision color matches score higher than a simple scratch fix, so your team can prioritize which paint enquiries to call back first. |
| Conditional branching | A yes answer on the collision-related question can route the lead toward the insurance and estimate side of your intake instead of treating it as a standalone paint job. |
| Photo and video capture widget | Owners can show the panel that needs matching or the extent of the fade before your estimator has to see the vehicle in person. |
| CRM lead routing | Fleet and multi-vehicle paint enquiries can be tagged and routed differently than single-vehicle walk-ins so they reach the right person for a commercial quote. |
Common auto painting lead scenarios
Post-collision color match
The vehicle owner needs color matching after a body repair and wants the work done immediately, so the intake flags it for the paint booth queue ahead of routine jobs.
Full repaint, flexible timeline
One vehicle needs a full repaint but the owner has no set date, so the intake still captures it as a valuable job while routing it lower in scheduling urgency than immediate requests.
Small fleet touch-up job
A local business needs panel touch-ups on 2 to 5 vehicles, which the intake surfaces as a multi-vehicle commercial job rather than a single walk-in.
Uncertain scope, non-owner caller
The person filling out the form isn't sure what paint work is needed and isn't authorized to approve the repair, so the intake holds the lead for owner confirmation before it's booked into a bay.

Auto Painting lead-intake FAQs
How does the intake tell a scratch touch-up apart from a full repaint?
The paint work type question asks the vehicle owner to select from full repaint, single panel touch-up, color matching after collision, or scratch/chip fix, so each lead arrives already sorted by the scope of work your shop will need to schedule for.
Can the intake flag leads that are tied to a recent collision repair?
Yes, the intake asks directly whether the paint work follows a recent collision or body repair, which lets you route those leads toward your insurance estimate workflow instead of treating them as a standalone paint job.
What happens if the caller doesn't know the original paint color code?
The intake asks whether the owner knows the color code or needs on-site color matching, so leads that will require extra matching time in the booth are visible before you book the appointment.
Does the intake check whether the person is authorized to approve the repair?
Yes, it asks whether the person filling out the form is the owner or authorized to approve the work, which helps you avoid confirming a bay slot with someone who can't actually sign off on the job.
Can it handle a lead that involves painting more than one vehicle?
The intake asks how many vehicles need painting, with options for a single vehicle, 2 to 5 vehicles, or a fleet of 6 or more, so multi-vehicle jobs are distinguished from single walk-ins as soon as they arrive.
How does urgency get communicated to my scheduler?
The timeline question separates immediate need from within a few weeks or flexible, so your team can see at a glance which paint leads need a bay opened up sooner rather than later.
