hey man....I paint pretty damn good.(15 years)

most likely I will beat anyone's price.

Dupont holds up pretty well.

Glasurit is a little better... flexiblity and gloss retention.

Any paint will work its all in the prep.

Sherwin williams is kinda gay though.

When I was a rookie...in chicago my boss would check my paint jobs with a pressure washer.... it had a heat setting. He'd put it up to 190 degrees. To check the durability of my job. He'd do that randomly w/o telling me. Also on the lexus vehicles they had semi to flat clear under the hood...After jambing and installing new parts he'd take a thinner rag and try to wipe the underneath of my hoods. Again randomly.
I caught him one time. I was like what the fuck aRE YOU DOING? He said he was testing my shit.
Before that I was working for two italian 92-97)brothers who mostly liked corvettes. So I learned what not to do with ppg and fiberglass.

I painted a red '66 el camino... the license plates say: [SIC 66] in dublin Ca. (1999) When I first came from Chicago..The body work was done by some guy that opened his own shop in tracey Ca. The shop was Galucci's. On Dublin blvd. It is now called magnussens.

I painted a red GTO (2003)I think it was a '70. At M2 in san ramon. The body man was "J.D." It is now called Cook's Collion on hooper dr. Tim Lubek was the mgr.

Not saying I'm the best there is.... There is always someone better.

I'd say mike at Moeller Bro's in san leandro. He is one of the best I've seen.
