My boss wants to bring his DD Miata to Earl Scheib for paint. Years ago I saw a 914 painted there. The paint was coming off in sheets and you could see distinct sanding swirls under remaining paint. But, they're still in business - maybe they've improved. Anyone with experiences out there?

MAACO does a lot better job, especially if you do some prep work first. Of course they charge more.

I took all the hardware off myself, paid for extra prep work, upgraded the primer and paint, and had them fill the big dents (keep the other ones to add character. It cost somewhere between $500 - $600.I was very happy with it. http://www.cassidy-online.com/thing73/pictures/pictures.html I had a 67 Mustang painted at Earls when I was in college, it sucked! |
