Does anybody have any pictures from a Maaco Paint store and were you happy about the job they did for you? Thanks

I've had a macco paint job before. It's the body work which really dictates the type of finish you will have. Keep in mind though, you get what you pay for.

Yes I am happy. Results not typical, all shops vary.

They didn't do a good job the first time they sprayed the car, so they DID NOT sand it all off and re-spray it. Instead they sprayed right over the top of the poor job they did the first time. The result is paint that is too thick , paint that chips and cracks. It is especially noticeable on the front & rear ground effects where they flex.

I think if you do the prep work and everything is done right and you dont get just the basic paint combo you should be good....I might sometime have mine done htere
