Central Florida Painter

Anyone know of a good painter in the central Florida area? I'm looking to get my '94 Z28 repainted and need to find someone who is capable and reasonable.

"Touch of Class" in Hudson on US 19. I had my 93 T/A painted using PPG paint. The color is Cherry Bomb with 6 clear coats and is a beautiful maroon but did cost $3,600

I would also like to know of a decent painter for a good price. While that may be a good price for you and your application, Im looking for something much more reasonable. Also I wouldn't change my color, I would just be looking for a good respray job.... any ideas?

Hey, you trying to jack my thread? lol - That's what I want to do as well - keep the same color, just new paint.

Give me a break, there's not that many LT1's worth 6K to begin with. If I had that kind of money I would buy an LS1 in good shape and broom my LT1. 6K for a paint job - more money than sense.

There are plenty of LT1's worth upwards of 6k. They are harder to find but they are out there..

This is not true! It took me a month but I found one. Its in Tampa Fl. and the name is Dianes High Glo on nebraska ave. I took my 87 Iroc about 2 years ago which needed some body work(minor) and got it painted base coat clear coat with new door moulding and they installed new door locks for $1400.00. I am a picky s.o.b and it looks awsome!!! I was amazed that they could do it for that price(which may be a tad higher now). I talked to a few other shops before I talked to her and they wanted $3600.00 and the quality of their work sucked! The guy at this paint shop can really spray-I looked at some of their work before I said yes and it was unbelievable. They could have charged me $2400.00 and I would have been happy. I hired a guy to detail my car about a year after I got it painted and he couldnt believe what I payed and was very impressed. I now have a 98 z28 and it will be going there for a paint job soon. I swear you wont find a place this good for double the money. O-I also have a lil 85 s10 truck and got a synthetic enamel 500 paint job on it 3 years ago and it still looks great.

It is between Fletcher ave./Nebraska and Bears ave./Nebraska on Nebraska ave. Yellowbook has the number probably-if not I will find the bussiness card and give you the number and adress. I am taking my car there really soon to get her painted.I cant wait.
