Can anyone suggest any good shops (or ones to stay away from) in the Atlanta area? All windows were replaced with a recent interior refurbishment, so all we should need is basic paint, probably a couple of fairings, and some minor fiberglass touch-up. Depends on what you mean by "area"... and also depends on what you consider "good". Some people are perfectly satisfied with paint jobs that others consider unacceptable. Anyway, I and my partners were satisfied with the job done by Grace Air at KCKI, near Florence, SC. Here's a good reference article about evaluating paint shops: http://www.avweb.com/news/maint/182829-1.html Dave Good point(s)... Florence is a little further that I'd like to go. I was thinking of staying within about 200 miles (or 3 hours driving time). I figure we'll have to make at least 3 trips, including two (drop-off and pick-up) that will require another aircraft or driving. We're not looking for either absolute lowest price or absolute highest quality, but rather a middle-of-the-road good quality for a reasonable price without a lot of "bells & whistles". Thanks for the pointer to the Avweb article, I'll take a look. Mike -- Posted via a free Usenet account from http://www.teranews.com |
