Re: paint job

["Gary H." <62to65mopar@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Good point. And not all Maacos are acceptable. A guy I know just had a 74 Plymouth sprayed by a Maaco near him. The car looks pretty good, though, so far, they lost all the scripts they took off before painting. But I guess any body shop could have that issue. And I once had a car all sanded and ready for paint and a Maaco quoted me a price that turned out to be the same as a body shop at a dealer where I knew one of the mucky-mucks, and the dealer used PPG paint.

I assume Maacos get a pretty good bulk price break on buying their paint.

But, as noted by several, the key to a good paint job is three things: prep, prep and prep. :) 

Thanks,
Gary H.
