Just came across your Instagram profile that led me to this. Very interesting and you just won a fellow BMW enthusiast as a subscriber. Cheers from the UK.

Good review. I’ll prolly save up for an actual paint job, I’d be frustrated too with actual debris in the paint/clear

[@jons6073]

Great vid! I have a white e46 touring as well. Has some peeling clearcoat, and I'm thinking of going down the route of diy prep and Maaco job myself.
I'm curious how you got the black trim and roof rails so clean on that car? Looks great!

[@TenzaMotorsports]

Well you heard my opinion on Maaco. It’s a gamble. I had another local shop do the black trim. It turned out really well

[@jlawlar]

they mite have not change out there filters in there air supply and in there booth and today newer cars have really bad orange peel, like in the last 5 years, they use to not be that bad

[@rickjohnson1266]

What is orange peel?

[@TenzaMotorsports]

When the clear goes on lumpy. That can be caused by all sorts of stuff. Quick google search would show you examples.

How much was the job

[@TenzaMotorsports]

2,300

[@christianspire]

You went to maaco and spent 2,300 and then 700 for a buff, and yet you still had a lot of cons to talk about…
SHORT ANSWER= hell no to maaco
