    Why, yes. Actually, I was in the paint booth a few days ago watching Rich, co-owner of 2M Auto Body, spray his brother's 330.

    I've been watching the progress from beginning to end. Amazing how much goes into a quality paint job.

    I've thought about asking one of our local paint shops to hire me for free on Saturdays just to to learn how to paint. I haven't had the guts to ask yet.

    I'm lucky. Dave and Rich let me hang out at their shop any time I want. If you know the guys well enough, I doubt you'll get much resistance.
