Thanks to all those who responded.I guess a lot of my frustration lies
in the fact I was very specific in telling the body shop there was a mix
of lacquer and enamel on the car, and it would probably need to be taken
down to metal.When they complained the job was harder than they thought
it would be I told them that I would rather pay more money and have the
job done properly. These guys do restorations, and I was surprised at
the result. Taking them to court is a pain in the arse and doesn't get
the car fixed. I have decided to take the hood off, pay to get it media
blasted, then get the bodyshop to repaint it FOC. On principle not the
best way to go, but I want the car ready come spring.Compromise usually
works better than confrontation.I was able to use my Badger airbrush to
do the "inaccesible parts".
