1965 Mustang Paint Job!

Almost Everything's Car of the Day is a 1965 Ford Mustang. This classic muscle car came to our shop with its looks on steady a downward decline. Its last paint job had begun to fade years ago and, unfortunately, as many old cars have, it had the dreaded "rust spots" bubbling beneath the paint. We began by grinding out, treating and filling the rust damage, then sanded the old paint to remove rock chips and scratches. Once sanding was complete we sealed the fresh surfaces with a primer and finally repainted it using Ford's original "Rangoon Red" color, in our "Single Stage Urethane" paint!

1954 Chevrolet Pickup Update!

1962 Ford Falcon Painted!

Almost Everything's Car of the Day is a 1962 Ford Falcon. This classic came to us in primer, its owner had some bodywork started and was now looking to simply clean up some of his work and paint the car. Since the owner didn't want to break his bank we recommended our Enamel single stage paint. Once our clean-up and sanding were finished we repainted the car with its original (by the book) color! Unfortunately once the car came out of our booth, due to many chemical differences and decades of paint formulas since the car was made, the color was off.  We worked with the owner and came up with a solution, we repainted the car again with a color that matched much better that we found in our color book! We compared our swatches to panels that still had original paint inside the car. Luckily the second time it came out of our booth the color was spot-on!
