maaco for respray?

[el_gringo]

teag, got any info on your work? before>after?

the Maaco close to me gets great reviews, each shop is independently owned.
ask to see their work and for the car to be wet sanded to give you the super slick paint, it will cost another $350. Prep it yourself, as they only mask and double check your quote as they quoted my last cabrio and was going to charge me 2 hrs for prepping the roof????....it was an oversight but still, check the quote...

maaco worked for me, i removed 80% of the trim, and sanded out any previous peeling that i had, its been 2 months and it still looks great, its just a little dirty.

I ran a Maaco for a while, and we were doing insurance work, and repair work of another shop (fixing what the "real" body shop screwed up) most are using sherwin williams paint, we used dupont, all should have real body men, and can do body work, and prep, but you have to ask for it, I have seen some collision shops do work just as bad (any production shop wants the car in and out fast)

has anyone ever heard of earl scheib auto paint? from the package prices it seems pretty cheap

[ddavidv]

Scheib is crap. Far worse than Maaco. Stay away.

[der affe]

cheap
long lasting
quality

you may only pick 2!

good rule of thumb to go by when looking at paint and bodywork
