Whats your exp's with Maaco???

All you'll get is single stage colour. I saw how my local maaco shop was run, and decided to do it myself....

yeah i got mine painted there spent bout 400 bucks and 3 years later it looks awful they dont sand anything hardly and i asked for a brght silver and now mines so dull its almost grey

You can do it better yourself with rattlecan paint! If you have an air-compresser already, go get yourself a spraygun and paint and do it yourself. I guarantee it will look batter than maaco

The Maaco around here is actually pretty good. I've seen quite a few cars look pretty nice even a few years later. If you are worried about them no sanding it, do that yourself. They "paint" very well...they just lack on prep work sometimes (but the more you pay the better they will do it).

Sadly those few that looked good paid for it, probably dearly. However they probably spent nowhere near what I do from my painter. But if your going to get a Macco job talk to them about the prep. I bought a truck that was sprayed by them. They used laquer primer on the spots that got body work. 1 year later all the spots that go boddywork were primered. The only place the paint stuck was where they didn't primer, you wouldn't have known it when the guy picked up the truck, a year later I primered the whole truck so it matched, then sold it.
Keep in mind Warranty, prep and the door jambs yada ya. This is a mAcco job that the person that owned the car before me had sprayed, I'm almost too embarresed to open the doors and hood around people.....





I'm not upset about it because it was only a $500 car and I plan on going black, all black.
But Macco was nice enough to paint the gas tank dark blue for me
