Big Buck Paint Jobs

If your paint job is worth more than I make in a year.I'd like to see what you got for your money.

 

a picture could never show you that.

 

yep...it's what you DON'T see that makes it.

Buddy of mine does high dollar paint. His theory on it is, "make it so right that they'll quit looking for flaws."

 

Paint really doesn't have that much to do with it, it's all prep work that makes for perfection. That is were the cost is.

 

thats what i hear ..its skin DEEP

 

Here ya go.



Just takes time . . . as you can see by the owner.

Good thing he's patient....

 

How much do you make a year????.....we might not be talking about THAT much of a big buck paintjob.

 

Some people fail to realize that.

 

self employed xderelicts make around a twenty can foose paint job.I like which ever brand is $0.99.

 

What's the point of this? The cost of a good paint job is in prep and finish work. The stuff a picture wouldn't show you and the stuff regular joes don't know exists.

 

Any chance that thing's for sale?

 

$ 1400.00 just for the paint ,them add the sand paper and primer..1 gal of primer $89.00 and going up..5 gal thiner 35 to 47 dollar...If you drive it here I would paint it for you

 

I've spent the last 5 hours blocking on a tank & fender for a bike for another hamber, and it hasn't even gotten any high build sprayed on it yet. The prep work and post paint cut & buff is what makes a paint job...I get to spray primer later tonight and then I'll get to block some more, then flake, then more blocking, then candy & clear, and yet more blocking, then buffing!

 

The points some jerk said his paint job was worth more than I make in a year and I was was wondering what it looked like.I spent a good portion of my 20s and 30s doing custom paint work.I gave it up for tattooing because most of the assholes that could afford the paint jobs, I didn't want to work for.I'm looking to see that one job that is worth more than I make in a year.

 

I gave up tattooing to paint cars! Car's don't squirm and bleed on me while I work!

Maybe you should just pm the person that said that to you?

 

Here ya go Dick---I believe this is the car in question---borrowed from Bad Bobs event photos.
Jeff has no idea of who you are or what you make, your comment must have just gotten under his skin, especially since they were hosting the show and it had to be frustrating not only having your car scratched but as hosts not being able to crowd control what happens to others cars as well.

I never thought I would see a thread like this on the HAMB. Whatever happened to Rustoleum? $4.00/can.

 

Sniff, sniff....

Some Big Fat Jerk.....Bla,bla,bla...Sniff-sniff...

Only met Jeff a couple times,
Real nice, respectable guy.
And ya, a Reeeeally nice paint job on that car.

 

There's a good chance.

The guy who owns seems to sell most anything.

I'll see him this weekend if you're interested.

 

So you have to show what an ass you are? WTF dude... You were being and ass then, you're being an ass now... Let it the fuck go....

 

this post is retarded...

 

Wow... the story unfolds and its gay. Want some cheese with that wine?
