Free paint job FTW

Well the company i work for does plastic products along with "information solutions".. We have these huge silos out back where they store these plastic looking bb's for injection molding. Well they came out to paint them last week.. My car was on the other side of the building halfway up the lot and I've got overspray ALL OVER my car. I'm hoping for a free paint job, i don't think they will be able to get it out.

Pics or didn't happen.

A thread like this is 100% pointless without a picture.

Yeah more than likely it could be removed without damaging the paint underneath. Worst case scenario, lots of wet sanding, go through the clear a little, spray some fresh clear. Little buff action and wala

Or, complete sanding and fresh paint //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/tongue.gif.6130eb82179565f6db8d26d6001dcd24.gif

PICS!

That doesn't look that bad from what I can tell with those pictures.

PICS!

as long as it looks good when I get it back, I'll be happy. The adjuster is in another state though.. I'm supposed to fax the estimate.. I do know a guy that owns a shop //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/biggrin.gif.d71a5d36fcbab170f2364c9f2e3946cb.gif

at my place we are always getting new stuff

At most they will take it to a shop and get it buffed out

if they are like any company its probably watered down cheap paint

anywho, I clay bared my car and it came right off

cost $20 bucks and 1 hour of my time

you want the company you work for to spend $1K+ on paint......no loyalty FTL
