Thanks,guys,for all the input. It won`t be Maaco. I will use an independent that someone recommends. The pic that "Palmetto Moon" put on here reminds me of a guy I knew in the Air Force that painted his car AF blue with a fly-spray gun that you pumped. AF must have been out of masking tape,though. He greased the chrome and glass.
Who has used Maaco?
- Thread starter yellowhammer
- Start date
When my little brother was still in hs he and some friends smoked some weed, drank some liquor and thought it'd be a great idea to paint my dad's Ford Ranger black then afterwards thought he'd appreciate a big yellow BAT on the hood...he didn't
Too far. I`m in the Dallas area.
With maaco its all the luck of the draw. Went to take a car there once, and looked at a car they were done with and rolling out. It was a 15' paint job, any closer and the runs sags blotchy patches were easily seen.
I left.
I used a regular body shop my last project and overall am happy I did.

And especially don't use maaco if you want to sale your vehicle, potential buyer's will run when they hear it has a maaco paint job.
I painted my car just the other day...used a roller...turned out beautiful !!!
I used Maaco on 41 in Marietta 2 times. They were prepped and dent free when I took them. They did a great job. One was a VW beetle for my daughter. Looked good 10 years later. The other I sold to a friend. It also held up well.
I took another to the one on Thornton Rd. in Lithia Springs. They screwed it up. I took it back. They made it a little better, but I was ashamed to be seen in it so I traded it off. I suppose it depends on the store and the painter.
