Painting a car is not that bad.....I have painted my car (older car) before and it looked great. You just have to take your time prepping and apply thin (not thick) coats and take your time. The key to a great paint job is prep and patience.

I've never painted anything other than a solid color, but I would suggest a body shop for a more sophisticated job like you are looking for.

Oh and the car I painted has looked just as great as it did the day I painted it...which was 5 years ago....but I wax 4-6 times a year (the car that is)

I think the clearcoat spraying is the toughest.....good luck though

nope jd i have checked im talking a show quality job, thats what i am lookin for. that the car striped little or no bondo, painted door jams, all the moldings removed, glass, trim so on and so forth, the real deal the right way to get in done.

I see, I did say that $7000 was about right for a show quality job. I don't think the poster is looking for that kind of job.
