you get what you pay for. the major cost in a paint job is the prep work if
you paint over more than one coat of old paint there is a good chance of it
pealing off in 2 or 3 years. I you want it to be strait then Macao's is not
where you want to take it. Close your eyes slide your flat hand over the
body, if you feel any bums then you will see them too.
