Collision shop for a repaint? Just don't do it.

Collision shop for a repaint? Just don't do it.

One of the reasons my dad and I opened our restoration shop back in the late '90's. I got tired of working at collision shops who said they did "restorations," scratch off the existing paint, fill the rust with bondo, mask even the emblems, and just do a quick squirt of base/clear. And they'd take forever to do it since it was just fill in jobs between the collision work.

Some of the redo's Pop and I did for some of the owners unmasked (forgive the pun) some real bondo kings out there.
