So I had some paintwork done on the other car (sorry not a Merc) at the end of January. The car immediately went into a garage for some engine work thereafter and I only got it back from there 3 weeks or so ago.
I am disappointed to see the results of the paint job. Admittedly it was done on a budget but as you can see from the photo below its now a total patchwork quilt. The colour difference is as shown - those are not shadows! It is not limited to the bonnet unfortunately but also rear wing and front wing x 2 and drivers door.
Question 1 is - is this a really rubbish paint match that is completely avoidable or is it one of those things when you spray an old bus?
If its avoidable then:
Question 2 is do I a) get lairy and demand money back or a new paint job/rectification or b) say, oh well you get what you pay for and mark it up to experience?
