So take them the paint you want them to use, no problem there. It won't peel if the prep work is done correctly, it just won't. There isn't anything magical Maaco can do during spraying that will make a shitty job, that's all has to do w/ the person using the Gun and I'm telling you, there's no difference in him and the newest monkey at the body shop around the corner. I've been to my fair share of them, they all came from the same gene pool.
swirl marks? hu?
fish eyes is b/c of poor prep work again, you have to spray on a clean surface, you can get prep spray from Eastwood to take care of this NO PROBLEM.
Orangle Peel, like I said, every job will have orange peel, a little wet sanding and buffing w/ the proper rubbing compound will take it right out.
