4 out of 5 stars Auto Paint - Helpful information ... wish it was in color.   September 18, 2009
Robert Hauck
This is a good reference written by a person who knows what they are talking about. My only disappointment was that it is entirely in black and white.
The level of the book is not for the newbie body worker trying to repair braile method parking damage to their bumpers and fenders. It is more of a reference with sound technical process and tool information. It covers lacquers of yesteryear to the powder and clear coats of today.
If you have done body work before and it was "shade tree mechanic" presentable but now want to take your work up a notch then this is a good book for you.



3 out of 5 stars Book about "paint", but black and white pictures?   September 4, 2007

First impression from the book - is that all pictures are black and white and it does not help (cmon - this is a book about paint!). I will update the review once I finish reading the book.

I have a shop for selling the car paints and other related facilities.

Sure the book have been helping me. But, I would like to be more simple and direct.

The description and a review or two state the book is "revised and updated" but the last revision was in 1998. I bit on this line, a mistake, since I wanted to know about current methods.
Techniques change, materials and tools evolve. If you want info on the latest technology, pass on this one



4 out of 5 stars Excellent!   March 19, 2005

This book covered everthing except installation of the kitchen sink!! Very nice how the author explained the painting techniques over the years and how things have changed. I also enjoyed the section on inspecting a car for hidden repairs.
Would have liked the book better in color but very nicely illustrated.
