I can just say if you want your paint to last 1 month then go there.

In the paint/detailing business you get what you pay for..

Maacos $349.00 complete paint job or whatever it is is like going and getting a $10.00 hookah for a quickie in your car when you really need a suite at the Venetian and the primo $1200.00 per night "companion".

Regards,
OK

Do it right the first time

DONT go to macco what ever you do!!!!!! My car was painted there 6 months ago and its being re-painted right now at a different shop. I paid top dollar for macco to do a good job and it turned out sastisfactory, but it wasnt no show car. Paint was dull, clearcoat uneven, orange peal on the intire car, under the trunk and hood was never painted, paint was chipping off, even behind my mirrors were never painted. Macco are complete retards!!! :fustrated The paint macco uses is cheap. Its obsolite in the indistry. They also dont sand your car, they wash it and claim that it works. Thats how you get your intire car painted in 2 days!!!!!It should take at least 1 week for a proper paint job. Oh yeah when i got my car back, my interior (white) was filthy dirty and I had to re do the whole thing. along with the cigarrette burn in my seat!!! Ive spent $ 6 Gs on paint now, So when you go do it, SPEND the money and do it right the first time. Go to a trusted body and paint shop. Enough said.
