Re: Right outta the paint booth

"we used Glasurit base and clear. I think the base was some crazy price, like 600 a gallon and the clear set up was also very expensive."

So you are saying that MAACO probably doesn't use that for their $199 dollar paint jobs, LOL. Your paint job is killer. I can't imagine how much time you put in just in prep work.

Ha no Russel I don't think Maaco is using the good stuff.
Thanks for the feedback. Lotta blood sweat and tears (literally all three) in the truck

Re: Right outta the paint booth

Years ago I was having a painter paint a car at his work, but as a side job. He wanted to do it on Saturday, just a few days away, and I was going to sand it first. I go it done, and his first question to me was, after being surprised that I finished it was, "did your fingers bleed?" The answer was yes. I didn't have any finger prints for a while after that.
