you can usually turn a deal with a local painter for about $500 if you strip the car so he has to do nothing i mean strip everything and mask everything for him. I am painting my car int eh spring and with paint and the guy spraying he is charging me $400 but the paint is $a little over $200 with supplies (masking tape blue 3m tape masking paper etc.) maco pait is shoddy at best and tehy do it so cheap becausee there is little to no prep befor paint and you will be scrubbing overspray off the car for weeks. All "cheap" paint jobs are what you pay for but one maco(by my inlaws) in lancaster pa seems to do a really nice job for the money but the ones by me suck.<br><br>try in work a deal in my opinion.<br><br>Later<br>Black_thunder

I tend to agree,nothing personal against Maco,just that I was in that business for 10 years and we always considered them splash artists.I would go with them for a quik resale job.

I used Maco when i needed a paint job. i used a very expensive plan and it has lasted a long time.<br><br>brandon
