I took my car to Maaco to have it painted and once I got it back it had overspray all over a well taken care of engine bay, all over all four of my wheels and tires, paint drips on my rain guards and more! They even painted something I did not ask them to! When asked to fix it they began to do a very poor job right in front of me. I immediately told them to stop and just drove the car home. | I took my car to Maaco to have it painted and once I got it back it had overspray all over a well taken care of engine bay, all over all four of my wheels and tires, paint drips on my rain guards and more!

All in all my paint job cost me $600 and it began to flake off one year later. I will never visit a Maaco again. | All in all my paint job cost me $600 and it began to flake off one year later. I will never visit a Maaco again. | ||
| − | + | the cheapo paint shops have good painters,all of the paint materials how ever are of the lowest quality the maskers are also good and the sanders are the same way heres why: they do at least ten cars a day. how long should a good sanding take?well, if the old paint is in nice shape and you used a da sander you should be able to do it in 4-5 hrs and agood quality tape job takes three hrs if all of that is nice the painter can do a good passable job in three hrs all this is based on using good quality materials, take the tape for instance, the cheap tape will not stick well, fall off in the paint etc..especially if the cheapos wont buy a precleaner to get the contaminets out that causes fish eyes in the paint and helps the tape to stick so laugh at the cheapo owners not the hard working slaves inside the hot sweat shop and ol earl is the biggest joke in the bussiness just ask ANYBODY in the biz they might not say anything but they will ALL laugh when you say what about earl s. all those guys would love to do better work and none of them are there long so there you go that said you can buy your own material ,go in and introduce your self to the hired help flash a little cash,itscalled a tip and if you love your car so much why be elcheapo?what would your wife do if you got elcheapo ring and her finger turned green?you bought it so you eat it .it looks like crap cause your a tight wad and now everyone knows looking at yourcartells it all "this guys as dumb as he is cheap"so if your going to be cheap be smart about it and no one will know | |
