What did you do at work today?

Sprayed the hood and hood sides today. I did the bodywork on the top pieces, the customer did the sides. Not happy how the sides came out.

Some people just don't get it. Just like you can't build a quality house on a crap foundation, a paint job can only be as good as the prepwork.

best painter in the world can't make a s*** prepped surface look great. But awesome prepwork can make a so-so painter look good.

was looking at the stretch Escalade limo the owner of the limo service I drive for just got. not even 3 months and the paint is literally cracking on a straight line right down the body line. here's the model he got except his is black so the paint cracks are easily noticeable from 30ft away. and then you look at the other side and it's slightly better, like a different guy worked on that side, but still
