    I have known Pete since the 80's. He painted my truck back in 87. Best painter I have ever met. True artists!

      Have been fortunate enough to have 2 Artisan Pro Finish Gurus who are builders lay their talented craft on my very special builds... Tommy 'Itchy' Otis (L.A. highboy) was my primary man for over a dozen of my builds that started with me fresh out of New York in 80 when he first arrived on the L.A. Rod and Kustom scene with my 56 F100 build (hotrod mag march 80) until 09... When he couldn't make it work on my Ferrari 360 M.C... Pete was commissioned to lay his lines on the ride... I still have the race car and very proud that he put his hands on my car knowing his pedigree through mutual friends we had thru Jesse... Thanks Pete for your classy tasteful work...☆☆☆

    that's some fancy paintn' right there partner. While I normally have no wish to drive to Temecula , this guy and his ability might be worth the drive to his shop. I wonder how many years I would have to wait to get some painting done.

    How do you address paint bleed through? A local painter showed me how old weatherstripping adhesive bled up as a yellow stain in his beautiful white pearl paint. He then sanded down the area to bare metal, then applied 2k primer and it still bled through with a yellow stain! He said there are no sealers to stop this. There must be a way?

    Ballpark, what would it cost to have a nice, sparkly paint job done at the hot dog on a european station wagon? Nothing crazy, just nice as hell?
