Default Re: maaco paint job.

The quality at MAACO varies tremendously because they are a franchise. When I needed my truck painted I went over to look at the cars coming out of their shop here, and was astounded. One DD-type car they'd just painted for $600 had been masked by a blind man, if at all. Orange peel, fisheyes, you name it. I would be surprised if they'd even washed the car first. Their more expensive packages weren't much better. But since then another MAACO opened across town, and the work coming out of that shop looks really good for the price. It all depends on the guy holding the gun, and that can vary month-to-month.

As mentioned, at the low end you aren't going to get good materials from anyone.
