Edge Report post Posted June 30, 2020 Some folks I know couldn't find a painter, they ended up hauling the trailer to Tucson. Pretty sure you could have a free paint job at CHAZ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ThomC Report post Posted July 1, 2020 Invite a bunch of Covid friends over for beer and paint party. Drink beer then give everyone a different drab color rattle can. If the camo looks good then do the rest of the truck next week. 😜😷 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
redhammer911 Report post Posted July 2, 2020 Hard to find a painter anymore for a reasonable price ended up having Maaco in El mirage paint my truck (check there reviews). My truck came out good and it was a lot cheaper than other places quotes. Owner is a good guy... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
