    Default RDB LA - HOW WE MASK OUR CUSTOMER CAR'S FOR PAINT! UPDATED WEEKLY PICS!!

    Here is how we mask a car to paint a rocker panel/jam. Instead of taking off the door and then having any misalignment issues we chose to mask the entire car the RIGHT way. No over-spray here! There is no way anything can pass through to the car, this is how detailed we are! Thought you guys would find this entertaining, LOTS of details to tape off. Notice the entire car is masked from the floor!

    Nicely done!
    A world where medical advances allow us to live forever is a terrifying thought...
