Those of you that read my little rant a while ago know what im talking about lol. first my amp, then my tire and now.... paint on my car! I work in a plaza/ strip mall kinda thing and about a week ago the light posts in the plaza were repainted, BUT the guys who were painting didnt feel it necessary to tell anyone they were doing this (even the property manager didn't know they were there!) so not knowing this was going on i parked where i usually park and when i get out of work i see little white specks all over my car! i guess it was really windy out so when they were painting it got all over the drivers side of my car. Thankfully i contacted the property manager and they are going to pay to fix it but its still a pain in the ass.

Have them spray the whole car. Look at it this way. You just got a new paint job for free. Pain in the ass yes. But you gotta look at the positives.

Have them remove the mouldings(if you haven't already) and repaint the doors incase you have the bubble issue. Have them paint some pieces you wanted done..like say the mirrors or b pillars or something like that. Look at this as an opportunity.

They fucked up. You take advantage of it.

Sorry to hear of your lack of good luck lately, Jen. I hope that everything will work out for you.

I was going to take it to a place i wanted to until the painter told me that there is a place i have to go, a couple other cars got paint on them to and this shop has already fixed them. So i wanna go in there with someone who really knows a lot about body work (cause i dont know that much) so i dont get screwed over.

I honestly don't think the car will need to be repainted, just the paint removed. Unless it has a hardener in it (which I doubt) then it will come right off with a few chemicals. Still ignorant of them not to say that they were doing that though. Those fucks. Some people have absolutely no consideration for others.

They will probably be able to just buff the paint off. But push for new paint. Mine as well. They fucked up. They gotta take the hit. If they don't want to keep bitching. They will give in sooner or later just to shut you up. I do it all the time bwhaha
