Re: paint job

Paint job....you get what u pay for. The cost is in the prep. Maaco shops 
mix there own paint from stock colors. You are getting a close to color. 
They buy in bulk, henceforth they save big bucks in materials. MO is right 
on if you go buy gallon quantities of premium paint. It gets very expensive. 
Nason is Dupont by the way. As far as base coat/clear coat......I personally 
don't like it on older cars, I prefer a single stage. its what they had.

If you're looking for just a "scuff & shoot" you could talk to Maaco.
If you mask the car and do the prep work, they will shoot it for dirt
cheap. I just saw an ad for ~$300. Check with people in your area but
supposedly the paint guy at my local Maaco is a phenomenal painter and
does a hell of a job. Just my $0.02
