I got my car back from my mechanic, who moonlights as a painter...The paint looked fine at first, although he did paint it in the dead of winter. I paid for
1.sanding 2.priming 3.basecoat (Mazda sunrise red, paint code RH) 4.clearcoat. A week after getting it back, it was still soft and had lots of imperfections in it. Handprints were easily left where the car was touched. He tells me he needs to buff it out. I get it back, IT LOOKS BEAUTIFUL. Fast forward to a few months from then, and now it feels like GD sandpaper, and its flaking to what appears to be my ORIGINAL PAINT!! That pisses me off. But aside from that, does this paint look like it could be salvaged, or what? On the flaking, he assures me they are stresses in the paint from where I must've hit something. I think it's BS. I've never hit anything in my life. Please see the attached pics and let me know what you think. |

Looks like there was no flex additive in the paint, does the snout look the same way? stress cracks everywhere?
|
did you show the guy his "wonderful" job? That's just pathetic. Hope you get your car repainted soon
|
That paint job sucks! sorry, The was no prep done from the looks of the spoiler shot, It looks like it was half ass wiped off and shot w color! where's the clear?
|
yeah the color looks faded

The phrase "moonlights as" does not belong in professional credentials unless it is followed by "bartender", "stripper" or "dominatrix".
Someone will have to peel all that crap off there, I would think. |
Thanks guys...this pisses me off. I paid 600 for that job. He's accusing me of that being my fault. Apparently he did his t2 just like mine, and his paint turned out like "armor." Mine turned out like "****." He wants me to have him buff it again, then hand wax it for 4 hours. I'll ask about the flex agent, he didnt say anything about it. What a bastard.
