Tired of seeing 200 diff. threads regarding paint/dents...

Now, i need to find a good cheap place that can take out my small dents, and redo my paint for a good price...i found a guy who does good work for 200 for the paint, but i cant find anyone that will do the dents for cheap...im in the tampa bay AREA and i have a 2dr 94 integra, paint is black

 

Actually Good and Cheap will NEVER be found together in the paint/body industry.

 

200 for the paint? Is he buying it from Wal-Mart?

 

Actually Sam's club. He probably gets it cheaper by the case.

 

LMAO, good luck

 

You get what you pay for...

 

That's true ^. Might as well spend 300-500 (depending on the severity) and let the professionals do it.

 

I heard econo was good!

 

Yeah econo is good. It's good for people to learn why GOOD paint jobs cost what they do.

 

actually you can paint a car for $40 if you really wanted to.... its all in how much time and effort you want to put in the finishing aspect. i painted the new fender on my ram for about $30 in Duplicolor primer, color and clear.. wet sanded between every coat on my back pool deck. every time i laid a coat down, shit would land in it and require a wet sanding. its all lacquer based and has about 25 coats betwen the primer, color and clear. then i used a red rubbing compound to smooth out the finish, then meguirs PlastX and then a white 3m polishing compound for removing orangepeel and oxidation. i did it all by hand and the finish came out perfect. another story, my friend bought a gallon of white laquer and a gallon of thinner and a foam roller. he mixed it 1:1 and rolled an S10 blazer with about 30 coats of single stage. then he just buffed it all out. youd never know it wasnt done professionally... all for about $40. anyone know a shop that would color match the cab of my truck to my "new" bed for cheap? it just has to look good enough for long enough so i can sell the truck.
