Can you tell me the details about paint work in Mexico. I got burned by a US painter and need a full repaint on my 1988 Prevost. Any info would be appreciated. I can't go back over the last 550 pages to find one of your previous posts!
There are many skilled boat/auto/motorhome painters and bodyworkers in Mexico, the hard part is finding them! Most are very good, some are superb. Doing what you are doing is the safest way to find one; Ask someone who has had experience.
We are in Zihuatanejo, in southern Mexico and have been lucky. Last year I arrived to see a neigbours trailer having a crushed fiberglass panel being repaired. I was impressed so I asked him for a quote for some touch-ups on my rig. I was impressed with both the work and the price.
Margarito did excellent work, matching the paint IN MID PANEL so you couldn't see the start/stop line
We area long way south though. I know of an Excellent shop in Mazatlan, one Juan Salazar Jr who is not only a highly skilled body and paint man but a real artist.
