Abstract
A computer-implemented method can provide a graphical user interface comprising one or more selectable elements for entering information about a paint job corresponding to repair of an asset that has been damaged. The method can also include receiving user input including: (i) a digital scan of the asset by a hand-held instrument: (ii) a digital image taken of a portion of the asset to be repainted; and (iii) a user time estimate that corresponds to an amount of time needed to repaint the asset. Upon final selection of color, the method can further include displaying on the graphical user interface a final estimate to refinish the asset, wherein the final estimate includes a cost of repainting the asset based on a volume and cost of paint determined from the received final color selection and received user input via the one or more initial input fields.
