Ok I was in a major accident lats august with my EVO and to cut a long story short the paint job on my front and and hood suck......It's chippin off like a bastard......the shop that did the paint job has painted it twice since then because of the same problem....it look like I was driving behind a sand truck all day.........I will get it painted again because the shop guranted his work for 1 year but what else can I do????

 

my stock piant has rock chips in it
maybe a clear bra?

 

he said he was in an accident and it got fixed then they resprayed it. there can be many problems for one how long has this shop been around and who is workin on the car? they might not be preping it right. also does it look like you ran through like white or grey paint in the front? if so that also means the paint isnt bonding to the car properly IMO i say try it one more time and if they mess up again make them pay for you to get it painted somewhere else.

 

That is how it looks exactly.....like little drops of white paint........on a black car

I'll get pics up soon

 

Whats a clear bra and how much does it cost???? Just wondering....

 

no bro u dont need a clear bra that would not solve the problem. this is a case of bad autobody work. trust me just go back try it again if its bad make them pay for you to go somewhere else.

 

Thanks

 

factroy paint is the best,but they should get it to hold up for a year

 

Funny part is is that the shop doing the work is right next door the the dealership near me. The "dealership" sub contracted the work to this shop for them to do the work to the car.

 

sounds like a botched paint job to me. imo, get it fixed by the rite people then if all works out and you dont want to worry about chips or anything check out getting a clear bra put on. they run anywhere between 200-500 but are well worth the investment if you do alot of distance/highway driving.

 

All I do is highway driving 7 days a week.

 

i d say 99% body shop sucks. they dont really spend time on prep at all. cause it s time consuming . prep is the most important thing.
find the good body shop= they usually charge hell alot more. but you get what u pay for

if u have spare time. what u do is sand it urself . you can use like 600 grit or a bit higher for the prep. and bring it to bodyshop.
