Good paint doesn't fade until it is left unwaxed for about 20 years.

The more times it gets crappy paint added on top of crappy paint, the more expensive it will be to have it done right.

If you read Earls site, it says they use the best quality paints (better than lexus according to independant lab tests i think), but they pretty well admit their process sucks, and say thats why their paint jobs are so cheap. And while it may very well look like ****, shouldn't it at least protect the car pretty well? How could they offer a 6 year warranty if not?
