Here's some nice fleet paint jobs, we get the black and whites in all white. The gold ones come to us in black. They were a very fussy fleet account. Everything is done in BASF base/clear.

That looks like a waste of taxpayer money to me. :D

Around here they just buy white ones and slap decals on 'em.

they made use paint the backs of the door along the edge where the skin folds over. They didn't want the jambs done, just taped off about a 1/2 inch inside along on the bodyline.

we actually stopped doing them, they wouldn't pay very well and were very, very fussy. Not your typical fleet account. But when we were doing them, on a good week we would put through about 6 or 7, that was on top of our regular collision work. They were a pain in the ****, and they just clogged up the shop. Everything was R&I'd so we had all of our parts stands pretty well dedicated to them. It slowed down the collision stuff which is a much better money maker, I'm glad their gone now. We have other weird crap we do now.
