Bleach Posted August 22, 2008 Report Share Posted August 22, 2008 Maaco shops vary. they are all independantly owned. Also, if you get the cheapest paint job from Macco, of course its going to be cheap paint. I was going to suggest you try the Federal Way Maaco location. Do all your own bodywork and buy their 3 stage paint job for $1200. Its their best paint job. It should turn out nice. Quote Link to comment
subbie240z Posted August 23, 2008 Author Report Share Posted August 23, 2008 thx for the help. ill finish up the body work myself and maybe prime it myself then take it to Macco for the color coat and clear. :) Quote Link to comment
Bleach Posted August 23, 2008 Report Share Posted August 23, 2008 and when its done, if at all possible keep the car covered. Carport or garage every night. That will help the paint stay good above all else. Quote Link to comment
