Clear coat came off while washing my car!

As the title says, yes...the clear coat came off my car! While I was washing it at a coin wash. I guess the pressure washer was set at like 1000 PSI lmao. F' ed up, I know. I was just wondering if anyone knows a good paint/body shop that'll do a decent job for about $500 or under? Yeah I'm cheap, so what haha. I just want a fresh paint job. Pressure washers FTL! Hand wash FTMFW!

for under 500 your best bet would be to watch some videos read up buy some tools and a spray gun and do it yourself

if you want a shitty job Maaco FTW

If you can throw up some pics I can probably tell you what your looking at. If your interested in doing it yourself I've created free training courses that may help here: trainingcourses .

Enjoy, (filmed in Ajax)

$500 for a fresh paint job, I don't think so.
