Okay guys, I am thinking about getting a paint job from Maaco. I know all the rumors about it, but I know a few people that have gotten it done there, and they say as long as the car is prepped very well I should be fine.
What I was wondering is what is the difference between Urethane Enamel and Synthetic Enamel? Thanks in advance. BTW: I plan on doing the Indigo Ink Pearl from lexus/toyota Paint This post has been edited by mjmsoccer: Jan 17, 2005 - 5:06 PM |

All maaco's are different. Some might have some good painters and some not. But for the price your not going to get anything awesomely good. For a older car that you just want to look pretty darn nice for a few more years then maaco is hard to beat. I got my old truck painted there and it came out pretty nice for 400$. Your car looks good also! Maaco usually does leave alot of orange peel though and it looks like you have some. You could wetsand it out with 2000grit and buff with compound to get a silky smooth finish. Looks nice though, good choice in color also.
