Default Paint

I am getting the roof of my car painted, and the rear bumper done near the end of March to get ready for a local car show in April. As a birthday gift, my brother is setting up everything, and finding a painter, however, I worry about his judgement. What are some important questions that I should have answered to make sure the painter is qualified?

Finding a good painter is at times a difficult task. Looking back on my past experience I would want to see a car or talk to someone that had a repaint done by this person. I would also be concerned on the matching the paint color. Often seems easy but the pigment of the paint will dictate a match or mismatch. This might help http://www.earthpigments.com/product...FdF95QodATvtdw
