1992 Chevrolet Camaro Painted!

Almost Everything's Car of the Day is a 1992 Chevrolet Camaro RS.  This Classic came to our shop as a purple / pinkish lump of 'Merican Muscle.  Not wanting to repaint his fire breathing IROC bred race car in the terrible color again, the cars owner decided to change the color to a much more menacing tone. After some light body work and lots of heavy sanding, we applied a primer sealer, and finally sprayed the Camaro in its new Gloss Black  paint with our Urethane Single Stage paint; The perfect option for an outstanding finish and warranty, meanwhile keeping costs low and not breaking the bank!

2000 Pontiac Firebird Color Change!

Almost Everything's Car of the Day is a 2000 Pontiac Firebird. This car came to us badly in need of paint! It had been sanded and unfinished by one of its owners and was becoming very hard to look at. The car's owner didn't want to spend $5000+ on a paint job and decided they wanted to go with one of our very economical Single Stage Paints! We cleaned up the car, then masked all of the windows, lights, and trim. Once we finished our prep the Firebird was painted a vivid Electric Pearl Blue that its owners picked out from our color book!

1970 Ford Mustang "Bullitt"

Almost Everything's Car of the Day is a 1970 Ford Mustang. This classic Muscle Car came to our shop looking pretty. Pretty ugly that is. The car's new owner purchased the Mustang from a fellow who primered and sanded the car's body. Not wanting to drive around in a primermobile, he came to us looking to put a reasonably priced, good looking paint job. He decided on our Enamel + UV protectant paint, in a very Mustang-y color: "Highland Green" or better known as "Bullitt Green" made famous by the movie "Bullitt"!

1998 Mustang Cobra Vandalized

Almost Everything's Car of the Day is a 1998 Mustang Cobra. This Muscle Car came to our shop after being vandalized by a gang armed with keys. There were scratches and gouges all over the car, most of which we sanded out, the ones that would not sand out were filled with a "high build" primer. Once the sanding and prep were complete, the entire car was sealed with a light primer-sealer. The Cobra was now ready for paint! We applied 4 coats of our premium Base Coat/Clear Coat paint to make this Mustang shine like new again.

1970 Pontiac GTO Complete Restoration!

Almost Everything's Car of the Day is a 1970 Pontiac GTO.  This Classic Muscle Car came to our shop *LOOKING* decent.  Under the seemingly okay finish unbeknownst to anybody, lay some serious, serious, bodywork to be done before painting.  The car had been "Repaired" before, years ago by a "Professional Hack Artist", nearly 100% of its body panels had been skimmed with an absurd amount of body filler, hiding the improper "Repairs" beneath it.  Once we had the car stripped, we discovered that the Quarter Panels, Doors, and many other miscellanious panels were in dire need of replacement.  Some panels were replaced using reproduction parts such as both Quarter Panels, the Decklid Filler, and a handful of other parts. Some panels were not so lucky, who would have thought a 44 year old collectors car would be so hard to find parts for?  The areas thatwere impossible to replace due to lack of parts were repaired, grafting recycled sheet metal in place of old rusted metal, and finishing with a much lighter skim of plastic filler.  Once the body was all taken care of, we applied a Primer, then block sanded the whole car, exposing every single imperfection. Once everything was straight and smooth we Painted the GTO with our "Performance Base, Clear" paint in its original color!

 You thought you were done reading didn't you? Well luckily for you the process didnt stop after painting, once the paint was dry we "Wet Sanded and Polished" the entire car to remove any dust specs, or contaminants found in freshly sprayed paint.  Also this process removes the natural texture called "Orange Peel" leaving the cars finish as smooth as glass, like a true show car's paint job should!
