Got my car back from th epainter last week and have been depressed ever since! He claims he wanted to do it right and remove all the panels before painting. Every set of panels he painted (on separate days) came out a different shade?? This pic gives you an idea - look at the door difference! Is this guy a total incompetent? What could cause this?

Even if a couple different cans of paint didn't match, that could easily be fixed by intermixing all the paint. There shouldn't be a base color mismatch. I primed that car myself, with a buff colored primer that would be a perfect base coat for that color. (the buff primer is how it got the name "adobe")
Isn't this the same painter that called that color "close" to signal orange? |
