Finding a painter to shoot color...

Sounds, like a huge costly headache and deals with pompous crybabies who think what they do is a black art... Pfft.

Pompous Crybabies?

It is a huge amount of work and in the end, if something goes wrong, the car owner will come crying and wanting his car redone for free.

With the cost of products these days and the great "Unknown" about the surface being painted, I wouldn't paint someone's car that they had prepped unless they signed a waver stating that i am not responsible for the final finish.

This includes things going to hell in the booth while I'm shooting.
