If paint guy says it is an issue of the prep or repair then Paint guy didn't look at the car before he started to blow the color.
A lot of painters won't paint unless they do the prep. Last car I did I prepped until only one prime coat, a guide coat and final sanding was needed. They stripped the car and started over costing twice what it should have been. The car in question got steel flares. I quit doing body work then and there. Why bust my balls when no one will trust my work?

But, I really can't blame the painter. That is unless he was out to just make a ton of money. If he cared, he would have asked me what I used and how I used it. We now live in such a suck world that having anything done is a major hassle.

Ol' Joe here just wanted to avoid the hassle I'm sure. Then his company of choice goes awry. Kevin, you might want to take a look just to gain back a customer and a future reference. That might be what real car guys do.
