Originally posted by deezy28 i have used them a couple of times myself,if you prep body parts and take them in,you get a very good product for the money,i went to the one in san diego,i guess the guy is into hondas,he did my fender and spoiler for 50 bucks,under the table.with my gsr rebuild im going back.im confident it will be cheap and look pretty good.if your really worried like i was go to the painter and talk to him,tell him you’ll give him a tip or hook him up and,im sure he’ll spend the time do a good job for you.its what i always do and it works,they dont make much money there and see so many cars,a little motivation helps =)
I’m a painter at maaco and if someone gives me a tip or owns a honda i usually spend a little more time on there vehicle. all my paint jobs come out perfect as long as the prep job is done right.
1 suggestion, I had my car repainted…with PPG mind you…the best they had for sale…I payed 700.00 for just the paint and clear.
If you do or ever have used armor all or anything similar on your door seal or sun roof rubber etc, take extra time to clean it. Pay extra money to have a better prep job done. I cant put enough emphasis on this, This is the single most over looked thing when considering to repaint a car. Most importantly, tell thge person painting the car that there has been an armor all like substance on your car. (any silicone based product, and some other oil bases products)
Then, and only then will you be happy!!
I love my converted paint color.
I went from frost white to electron blue.
Originally posted by Hot92teg I got my car painted there twice, once with just a front bumper, then with the whole kit and shaved emblems and antenna and door handles. They shaved my emblems and antenna and it was PERFECT. I got the second to best paint job they offer and best prep job they offer. the total price was only about $700 with a 4 year warranty on peeling cracking fading or anything like that, they repaint it for free. The paint used a dupont which is not as good as PPG but still very respectable. My paint looks beautiful. when i tell people maaco painted it people dont believe me. Ive been happy with them.
Hmmm…if you got a good paint job from Maaco you are a VERY lucky person, and you fall into the minority of people that are happy with their work… go buy a lotto ticket…b4 your luck runs out.
