ive seen some of their work, they say to tell them "lite sand" to cut the cost, but it looks like a joke when done, get the 3rd or 4th tear that they offer (the more expensive ones) the cheaper 2 suck imo if you can wait, im testing out ferrari red on an 89 acclaim - car was litterally rust maybe 3 square feet of primer then possibly a square foot of dark blue, thats my lil body work guinney pig biggrin.gif

but x2 for the taping... tell them to take their time and do it right, all that matters is that your happy an 800 paint job can do that if done right AND make you happy about not droppin 1500+ on paint
