Shining it up

Anyone know anyone who can spray my '91 Z for a decent price (pretty cheap)? All the prep work is done by me so all I would need is to have it sprayed.

Re: Shining it up

Paint shops will not guarantee the paint job unless they prep it and since you have primed it you are probably SOL.
IIRC they wont even guarantee it against runs.

2 stage and color sanded for $2100. It turned out quite beautiful.

2000 vette color Pewter Pearl Metallic.

They also did a grat job on a '77 ElCamino I had. Single stage for around $700 if I recall correctly including spraying the bed.

At least Maaco does have some options for decent paint jobs... its just the cheap ones that suck.

Which is more than I can say for Earl Sheib and 1Day Paint & Body...

I actually haven't primed it for that very reason. I wouldnt just prime a car and let it sit for weeks and expect the paint to stick anyways. That would defeat the purpose of priming it.

But anyhow I wasn't exactly referring to a shop, I was referring to if anyone knew someone personally that could do it for a good price and I could check out there work. I may have something lined up though..
