There's one of these "one day" paint places in my neighborhood. They often have finished cars parked out front, and, frankly, they look pretty good, at least at a long glance as I walk by. Occasionally I even see classic cars parked in their "finished" lot.
I don't know what they charge but it's gotta be a lot less than the high-end painters--a few hundred $$? So, what do they do that keeps the cost so low yet results in a presentable job? Obviously, they must not remove trim and such, but I have never seen any indication of sloppy masking. Somehow they must also get a decent finish with minimal sanding and prep work. But how?
Anyone know specifically what is different about these places, and, more to the point, would you consider using one?
