I did this ONCE, many years ago. NEVER again.

I am VERY particular, and as it turns out 95% of the public is stupid when it comes to paint.... "Oh, it looks so shiny" seems the basis for evaluation.

I had a minor issue on an Infitinti Q45 that I let them paint- they blew it and had to redo it. They blew that. It went from a quarter panel paint/blend/ clearcoat to 'two doors, quarter panel, trunk and rear bumper blend' with a 'remove front and rear glass, all trim, clearcoat all of the above panels PLUS roof and pillars'.

Do not give them the chance to F it up.... set expectations up front.

My 2 cents
