New Dodge vehicles paint jobs???

[Silver R/T]

It all depends on how good spray machine is running, how well and how paint is reduced, humidity, etc, etc. Too many factors to list them all down. Btw mini coopers are not cheap (BMW puts them out) BMW's have pretty decent paint jobs from factory.

You should have seen the mega hours they put into those Vipers Paint jobs wet sanding & rubbing when I worked at Mascotech. Sometimes they got repainted 20 times trying to get it perfect. After the front clip got that much paint on it they would cut the front clip in half & throw them away in dumpster. What a waste. The factory paint is always more durable then repaint since it gets baked at 300 degrees I hear? LEON.

I think I'm just going to buy a big overn and powder coat my whole car

Ive heard that too, and apparently thats part of the reason the paint has such bad orange peel. We just got a brand new cadillac SRX in the shop for some uhh "custom" work 

The orange peel on that is horrid, especially after seeing the wonderful paint jobs some of the guys at the shop have put out.
