It appears that you have already made your decision. I would like to add my experience to the list. Back in 1989 when Hurricane Hugo paid Charleston, SC a visit I was there and rode out the storm tied to the pier aboard the USS-Dewey (DDG-45). The following morning I visited my car and found that all the glass, with the exception of the windshield, no longer existed and the paint was terribly chipped (I had strategically parked next to a building in the hopes of minimizing potential damage though I did not consider that the flat roof of this building contained millions of small stones - many of which found my car). The Navy was writing checks the following morning to sailors that received damage to their vehicles. I opted for a Maaco paint job because of the price and it looked, at least initially, amazingly good. I found evidence of their 'prep work' - the rear valence area had apparently been forgotten and the preparation appeared to be no more than a swipe to the area once with sand paper. Visually, the paint held up fine until I returned from a deployment a couple of years later where I found the paint to be completely oxidized and rough to the touch. |
There was a guy on the renn board by the name of mideastmafia that did his 951 with spray cans - it looked awesome and lasted well. Yes it can be done. The stuff they're putting into cans these days is actually pretty good and if you want, a good paint store can mix up whatever color you want and put it into cans for you.
