I had MAACO paint my '06 Z71. It only has 85,000 miles on it. The clear coat failed on the roof and hood, and it looked pretty bad. They did all the prep, and they did a great job for 5k, looks like a new truck. I know a guy with a shop who would have painted the hood, roof and feathered in the rest for 7k. I used the Sunnyvale, California shop.
Maaco IS worth it, if you do youre own prep work. 90 percent of the reasons why maaco paint fails and chips is because maaco will either do a poor prep job or lie to you and say they did it
@@Tango-Mike-Bravo when I did it. Maaco wanted 300 for the "outside" prep work, then charged me 300 per door jam, under the hood and trunk. I said fvck that, spent 10 dollars on sand paper, bought black matte spray paint, and did it myself. It took 5 hours, but I literally saved around 2400 just on prep, which half the time, maaco never does
@@chikenburger prep is light sanding, taping, maybe a little bondo on deep scratches and all that is needed for paint. Just don't get talked into paying for door jams and other addins
If it's a 💩VECHILE 📦 it's definitely worth 👌 it, in my opinion, as long as you do the necessary and proper preparation before it get's sprayed if it needs it that is...
A honest review. Shout out from Australia

Bro!!! That’s a big win if you ask me!!! Truck looks great, and the paint is great.
sounds like a perfect solution then for drift cars and winter beaters haha
Looks great. Did you take it to a Maaco that has a high rating?
I believe their rating is above average. Nothing phenomenal.
Hell, that looks great for right around 1000 bucks
Just took my truck hope it comes out nice $2300
How'd it come out, what was the final? You use maaco? I have a 89 k1500 sierra I need done, but has some qtr rot
It came out nice I am happy with it

How much cheaper if I do my own prep work

Get your quote, wait about a month, they will call you and lower the quote. I saved 300
@@mr.joshua204What exactly is prep work? I know nothing about this, but I need to paint my beater, and saving money sounds good.

I recently paid 9k for a paint job and it’s just about as good as a maaco one. If you find the right maaco dealer then you’re golden
