Default Updated-Anybody in need of paint/body work? I'm in SA

My husband works at the San Antonio Auto Auction's body shop. (He's does paint/prep and body work) Since things are a bit slow there he is now able to take his work there to do. The booths there have down draft. He will be the only one touching your car; meaning he will do body work (if needed), prep and finally paint. If interested you can always reach me here or through a PM. I don't know exactly when they should have a fuller schedule but for now he can take the work there. He is always doing work on the side only he uses a different booth. Contact me whenever. Thanks.

That link should (hopefully) take you to pictures of the booth and his prep area.

April

Hey that made me think, what about a golf cart? I am looking for someone to strip and repaint my golf cart like a kick *** color, probably like some type of blue or something similar.

MInes a long ways away till im ready to paint, even though It needs it really bad. I just put all my $ into new heads/cam. If possible could I get a round about # to redo the whole car with some small dents fixed?
I just want a roundabout of how much I need to save. Thanks

Hey John and All. I'm Alex and I finally made my own profile on here. So now you can come straight to me or still April camracingah. As for our newest edition a baby girl named Aven Madison; We are all doing well thank you. You got to see her pictures. I'm a proud dad. http://portraiturebyliz.com click on galleries then under sweet peas. Once you get to her picture with the flower the rest all her.

Does it need body work? The most $2K. Maybe less.

Do you do buffing? I have a black 02 Civic coupe that has horrible swirl marks and the paint just looks dull. The clearcoat is fine, but it just needs a once over with the buffer. The previous owner obviously never garaged it. So what would you charge for this?

What brand of materials does he use for paint, just out of curiousity..

On a complete paint job is it just lightly wet sanded, then sprayed over the existing paint, or are the sanding then priming then painting just so people know what kind of work is to be done.

Thanks

I need the rivet holes from my RS gound effects filled, sanded, primed and painted. Can I get a ballpark figure for that in Hugger Orange?
