Cheap painters are flaky...yes BUT real good professional painters won't touch your work because when asked "who painted that?" you are gonna tell them and all the mistakes in body work are going to be blamed on the guy who painted it. They'll ask how much you paid and then the tisk tisk tisk comments follow... This is why real talent costs real money. NOBODY ever asks "who did the body work?".

Nobody has ever taken their truck to a shop and said "I don't need show quality" and then been happy with anything less than show quality! Reputable shops are not stupid or cheap for this reason.

You'd be better off to learn to paint it yourself, so when asked "who painted that?" you can tell them you did it in your own backyard and they'll be impressed (despite any blemishes).
