Maaco on the other hand, do not do body work, unless u pay for it, and they use 1 stage paint. (clear coat mixed in with base paint). which looks cheap are aren't as glossy.
I know that earl shieb just paint over ur old paint job, and do not sand at all.
Not only that, the paint they use are cheaper and dont contain "flex additives".
But hey, we drive integras, they dont need $2000+ paint jobs.
if your like me...regardless of the fact that it's an integra...u love it like a vette, ferrari, porche, AMG merc, Lambo...eh u get the idea...if u want a good paint job...it's not cheap...i spent 2200 on mine and it's been good to me...started cracking recently but only on the hood cuz my fat f'ng friend sat on it...i had to punch him in the gut pretty good....but i think he got the point:exnbp:
