[QUOTE="ttocs, post: 1543025, member: 11896"] your never going to trick a paint pro, but you can trick 98% of the people out there. I use to install car audio at a place that rented the install bay space from a company that did automotive detailing and a limo service. One day one of their limo drivers pulled up and was showing off his brand new truck, fresh off the lot with the paper sticker still in the window. It looked cherry to me but almost as soon as he pulled up the detail guys gave it a strange look and asked why it had been repainted in a few spots? The driver looked confused as they started to show what pieces had been reshot, even finding masking tape on the bottom of the panel. The driver was livid because it was his first completely new vehicle purchase and this took the wind out of his sails to know his "new" truck had already been repaired to the point they could tell.
