➜ Auto Body Paint & Supplies

A basecoat and its clearcoat have to come from the same paint line to cure and bond correctly, which is why matched systems matter. Gervic Auto Body Supply supplies that full chain for Middletown, NY painters: PPG paint mixed to your code, plus primers, clears, fillers, abrasives, spray guns, masking, and safety gear from the brands professional shops rely on.

MATCHED SYSTEMS, NOT A SHELF OF MISMATCHED CANS.

A finish fails when products fight each other: a filler that outgasses under primer, or a clear that will not bond to an off-brand base. We sell paint, primer, and clear as the coordinated systems their makers engineered, then surround them with fillers, abrasives, and tools chosen to work with those chemistries, so every layer you spray is compatible with the one beneath it.


Built on real refinishing knowledge, not a checkout screen.

As a PPG Platinum Distributor, we pair PPG basecoats and clears with proven supporting lines, and we know which combinations sand, spray, and cure cleanly together. That is the difference between guessing and specifying.

  • Evercoat and U-POL fillers and putties
  • Norton, 3M, and Mirka abrasives
  • SATA and DeVilbiss spray equipment

➜ AUTO BODY PAINT & SUPPLIES

THE WHOLE JOB, SOURCED FROM ONE COUNTER.

Nothing stalls a repair like running out of hardener or grabbing the wrong grit halfway through. Our counter is built to prevent that. In a single visit you can spec PPG color and clear, Evercoat filler, SEM and Kleanstrip prep, Norton and Indasa abrasives, a SATA or DeVilbiss gun, 3M masking, and a Shoot Suit and respirator, every item matched to the vehicle and the repair sitting in front of you.

PRODUCTS THAT SURVIVE tri-state area WINTERS.

Road salt and freeze-thaw cycles drive moisture into every seam, and a weak coating blisters within a season. We steer Tri-State Area painters toward corrosion-resistant primers and rust encapsulators like POR-15 and Zero-Rust, epoxy and self-etch primers for bare metal, and durable PPG clears that hold their gloss through hard winters and summer sun, rather than whatever happens to be cheapest that week.

WE KNOW WHICH PRODUCTS EARN THEIR SHELF SPACE.

For 71 years this family has watched brands come and go, keeping the lines that perform and dropping the ones that disappoint. That is why you will not find filler that shrinks or clear that yellows on our shelves. Our staff carries 100+ years of combined experience, so when you ask which primer bites best on aluminum or which clear buffs easiest, you get an answer earned at the counter, not a guess pulled off a label.

WHAT A WELL-STOCKED COUNTER DELIVERS

One-Stop Sourcing

Buying paint, prep, filler, abrasives, and safety gear in a single visit keeps your project on schedule and your costs predictable. You plan the whole job at one counter instead of chasing parts across three suppliers and losing a day to it.

The Right Product First

Matching the coating to the substrate and the repair prevents the fisheyes, shrinkage, and adhesion failures that force a redo. Getting it right the first time protects your time, your materials budget, and the finish you hand back to a customer.

Professional Color Matching

PPG paint mixed to your factory code lets a repair blend into the surrounding panels instead of announcing itself. Accurate matching, adjusted for age and fade, is the difference between an invisible repair and one every passerby spots in sunlight.

Corrosion Protection That Lasts

Etch and epoxy primers plus encapsulators like POR-15 lock moisture out of bare metal and seams. In a road-salt climate, that protection is what keeps a repair from bubbling back up with rust a season after the booth.

Expert Guidance

Straight advice from professionals who understand these products saves you costly trial and error. A quick question at the counter can spare you a wasted panel, a ruined can of clear, or an afternoon spent fixing an avoidable mistake.

Value on Premium Brands

Competitive pricing on names like PPG, 3M, and Evercoat lets you spec quality materials without blowing the budget. Buying the full job in one place, at fair prices, keeps a repair profitable for a shop and affordable for a home restorer.

➜ THE WORD ON OUR WORK

WHAT OUR CLIENTS SAY.

Painters across the area keep coming back for the same reasons: the brand they want is in stock, the price is fair, and the advice is honest. Our 4.6-star rating across more than 100 reviews reflects a counter that treats a one-fender job with the same care as a fleet order.

➜ Common Questions

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS.

A few of the questions painters ask most about sourcing products and brands for a refinish, answered so you can plan the job and buy everything it needs in one trip.

  • What products do I need for a complete refinish job?

    A full refinish needs primer, basecoat, clearcoat, reducer, and hardener, plus filler, abrasives, masking, and prep solvent. Gervic Auto Body Supply walks you through the whole chain in Middletown, NY so you leave with a complete, matched kit.

  • What paint brands do you carry?

    As a PPG Platinum Distributor, we stock PPG paint systems along with the Omni, Shop Line, and House of Kolor lines. Around them we carry 3M, Norton, Evercoat, SEM, U-POL, SATA, DeVilbiss, and dozens more trusted refinishing names.

  • What tape and masking supplies prevent overspray?

    Automotive masking tape from 3M and Q1 holds a crisp edge and pulls clean without residue, paired with masking paper or film over glass and trim. Fine-line tape gives sharp two-tone breaks, and pre-taped film speeds up covering large panels.

  • How should I store leftover paint and clearcoat?

    Keep unmixed products tightly sealed, upright, and away from heat, cold, and direct sun. Once activated with hardener, most clears and paints have a short pot life and cannot be saved, so mix only what a session actually needs.

  • Do you carry touch-up paint for small chips and scratches?

    Yes. Gervic Auto Body Supply stocks aerosol and small-batch touch-up products at our Middletown, NY store, matched to your factory code. For minor chips and scratches, these protect bare metal and improve appearance without setting up a full spray job.

  • Which abrasives are used for wet sanding a clearcoat?

    Wet sanding a cured clear starts around 1,500 grit to level orange peel, then steps through 2,000 and 3,000 grit before machine polishing. Fine papers from Norton and Mirka and plenty of water keep the cut even and scratch-free.

  • Do you mix and tint paint to a specific color in-store?

    Yes. We mix PPG paint to your vehicle’s factory formula on-site, and we can tint and adjust to help a repair blend into faded or aged panels. Bring your color code and we will get you an accurate match.

  • What is the difference between epoxy and self-etch primer?

    Epoxy primer seals bare metal against moisture and builds a strong, sandable base for filler and color. Self-etch primer bites into clean metal with an acid for adhesion but stays thin, so many painters etch first, then follow with epoxy.

➜ HOW WE WORK 

FROM BARE PANEL TO FINISHED COLOR, HERE IS HOW WE HELP.

STEP 01

Tell Us About the Job

Describe the vehicle, the damage, and the substrate, whether it is steel, aluminum, or plastic. Those details drive every product choice that follows, so a quick, honest rundown at the counter sets the whole job up correctly from the start.

STEP 02

Match the Color

Bring your paint code and we mix PPG color to that exact formula on-site. For older or faded finishes, we help you find a blendable variant so the repair disappears into the panels around it rather than standing out.

STEP 03

Build the Product List

We assemble the full chain your job needs: primer, sealer, filler, color, clear, reducer, and hardener, all matched to work together. Nothing missing, nothing that fights the next coat, so your project runs without a mid-job supply run.

STEP 04

Add Prep and Safety Gear

Norton and Mirka abrasives in the right grits, 3M masking, tack cloths, gloves, and a proper respirator round out the cart. Good prep and protection are where finish quality and your own safety are won, so neither gets skipped.

STEP 05

Walk Through the Technique

If you want it, we talk through spray settings, flash times, and coats so you head into the booth with a plan. New painters get extra time; seasoned shops get quick, straight answers on anything unfamiliar in the lineup.

STEP 06

Come Back for What Is Next

Finished the color and ready to buff, or starting the next repair? We are here for the follow-up products and the questions that come with them, the same counter and the same people every time you return.
