I think it depends upon the individual store. The one in south Charlotte is excellent. I was referred to them by someone else whose car was at a show. They did a very good job on mine and even gave me a discount after I bent the hood.

Hi Barry. Which paint package did you get (the premium, the ambassador, or whatever?).

I agree with the person who said each one is different. Also, check out the cruises and ask around a lot before you choose. I had my wife's car painted by Maaco in Charlotte and they did a very good job. It's not a show car but, is a lot better than I expected.

Default Don't use any of the quick paint places

I had a friend take his car to earl schibe and they did a horrible job. He paid for their premium paint job. There were runs and fish eyes all over the car. They would not do anything about it. I think he paid almost $2000. for the job.
These places are for hacks that just want a quick shine on a pile of crap to sell.
