View Full Version : ATTN: BUCKY thread my story



Mr. Clean

THIS IS NOT JUST A RANDOM THREAD. THIS IS AN EXPLINATION OF ANOTHER THREAD THAT WAS IMMEDIATELY DELETED!!



ok... heres the deal. sh*t was gonna hit the fan eventually with as obsessed i have become with IA and how everyone knows everyone somehow haha.

first... as much as i love you coorscan... this could have been sqaushed privately and not when he first opens the doors to his new business.

but on the other hand... yes my paint is kinda shady.

payed $1,000 (wasnt going to say a price unless bucky or an associate said something but carbon_crash said it so i think its ight to post it)

now bucky has been nothing but the best with me as far as communication and just a generally hella nice guy. now coorscan was going to paint my car before, but said he would have to wait until summer because he doesnt have a heated booth, but i have seen his work and it is very nice. well i got ancy and decided i wanted it painted now... so i posted a thread and bucky replied with all the answers i wanted... 2 base coats, 3 clear coats, full sanding, and jambed for the price i had the money for. and i have seen nothing but good things come from him but in retrospect i have never seen a car.

well i dropped it off with him for a week and he sent me pictures of the progress and kept in touch. well i went back a week later and picked it up and in my moment of excitement i shook the mans hand and left. well i got home and notice a lot of blemishes such as fish eyes, orange peel, dry spray, some spots where old color was coming through, and a couple of runs, but the doors were ****ed, they had dry spray on the corners and on the tips of the fenders. so i PM'd him and let him know that it was kinda rough and i wasnt happy. so he immediately pm'd me back and we got a date set up to bring it back so he could fix whatever i had problems with.

well i went to work the next day and everyone knew i was getting my car painted and so everyone wanted to see it and i couldnt stop them. well everyone had the same reaction of wtf is this. so i explained at least 12389234 times in optimism that i was taking it back and im confident it will look much better... well i work with a few people that are on IA as well and i try and get to meets as much as i can so i knew the word would get out eventually and when people see the job they will have something to say.

well i took it back and left it with him for another week and i pointed out some specific spots that i wanted fixed but not all of them. I'm one of those people that tries to put myself in everyone elses shoes all the time so i couldnt bring myself to point at every little spot because i know all the prep that went into the job. he took apart most everything... took all the weatherstripping off, took the hood off, the trunk off, the headlights came out and the bumper came off and the fog lights were taken out and everything was sanded down and some of the dents were taken care of. and the car is painted black and black is amazingly difficult so i understand that.

well i got the car back the second time and the top looks great and the trunk lid looks great and the doors are better... they are not perfect but they are better. he even took the drivers side door all the way to the metal and started over because he wasnt happy with it, but i have been looking all about the car and the fenders still have dryspray and there are a couple of spots that you can still see the metallic maroon that used to be on the car. now i told bucky that i would handle getting it compound buffed and i have done this yet and i know that that will make quite a bit of difference. so now the car is really not as bad as some may say. to someone who paints cars they may see a job that is not up to good standards but for the average schmoe it does not look that bad. now the main thing is just bad orange peel on the doors and a little dry spray on the fenders still, which bucky has told me numerous times that he will fix. now i have come to the point where i cant afford to leave the car with him for long periods of time when i know time is what is needed for good paint and also to be completely honest, its come to a point where i have to decide if i want to listen to the people that i work with that paint and say that most of the orange peel is bad enough that it really needs to be sanded and re-cleared or pay a little money and get it buffed and see what happens. coorscan and other painters have said there is no fix for what i got and it needs new clear but some have said buff will work. i dont know and if i spend the money on a buff job and it is still bad and i have to get it recleared then i have really wasted a lot of time and money.

SO... bucky has not wronged me. he did a good bit of work and it still needs to be buffed to see what the actual final product is. and even after this recent thread was posted he has talked to me and said he will do whatever he can to make me a happy customer. this is just a mess of drama that really needs to be fixed by me. i know bucky would realistically re-paint my car if i just bought paint and if i really wanted him to. but i dont have the time to drop it off right now to get another week or two worth of work done so i am in a pickle trying to decide if i want to make this man do even more work on my car. is it his fault because he should have done it right the first time or my fault because i havent given him the time and told him what i really think.

this will be solved and i know bucky will do just about anything in his power to make myself happy or anyone else who wants to do business with him.






if any details have been left out, bucky or coorscan or buddha or JDMjoe please remind me and i will edit.

2 weeks imho is long enough time to do a good job. My opinion is you deserve a good job, because that price is not low or high, and you CAN get a great job for that price. Sucks that everything didnt work out perfectly yet, but maybe it will. Good luck to everyone involved.

EDIT: This is just for reference. My brother had a 82 Silverado, and it had a LO of bodywork that needed to be done to it, adn he wanted it jet black - hood jambs-engine bay, undercar, the works. Theres a guy that lives below us that owns a shop and does paintwork on the side. My brother got his car painted there and for $1200 and some change, the truck was taken down to the metal, all dings and dents were taken out, everything was painted and the guy sprayed the best black job I have see in real life. He buffed it and even took care of all of the beginning paint care for my brother. All of this was taken care of in a week, and that on top of his other customers he had to take care of.

Wow after reading the OP, it seems like just people stuck there nose where it didnt belong and got involved in a business transaction that they had no business getting involved in.

Also from what I read you have accurately described every experience I have had with Bucky. If I have ever had a problem with his work(and I have only had 1) he has been more than willing to correct the issue. It has always seemed to me that Bucky has been more than willing to go out of his way to make a cituation right or his customers happy. I would just say work with bucky wait till you can afford not to have a car for a couple of weeks and let him correct it. If he says he's going to do something I believe he will do it.

Good Luck

yeah i felt like i needed to reply because enough people saw the original thread to start rumors.

i just called bucky and i think hes gonna line up a buffer for me and if it doesnt look good after that then he's said numerous times that he'll fix it while its there...

its basically settled in my mind but i had to say something back to IA

orange peel can be buffed out.

If it is really really that bad. Just hit it with some 600 grit sand paper. But make sure not to go throu. That way you get the peel out and then you can just clear back over it. Would look good as new.

So apparently more BS that is blown out of proportion is what I am seeing by this post. Yes, I can understand that the paint job might be sub par to a lot of people including you. People make mistakes in every part of the automobile world. It is how you fix those mistakes that make the business, which is what he is trying very hard to do it seems. Unfortunately it seems like your car was the guinea pig for him painting something big like this. This doesn't make him a bad person, and people are being a bit harsh about it IMO.

Now that he has been brought up, that reminds me that I need to get a quote from him on a set of wheels I picked up for my 4Runner.

I can agree with the first part but you cant get a paint job like Mike did for 1K. I helped work on it when it came back. I didnt get to see the finished product but from what I saw the "imperfections" are very fixable. A good wetsanding and buffing will make any car look brand new.

NOW for mushroom toy:( I have met u and have never had a problem with u untill now.U walk up in here bashing a well known very good at what he does paint artest that did something u really wanted to do and because shi* went wrong u come on the forums and acted like a child and not only broke IA policy rules but trying to break a mans business that feeds his family.Me and alot of other IA members can vouch for the work he has done for us and havent had a problem what so ever and if there was a problem just simply went back to him and got it fixed without bashing his work on IA.


I not only think it was childesh but very much showed what kind of person u are in general.And well lets just keep it real alot of guy's!![/QUote] not saying*clean sol* come to bucky and want shi* done for the low so he tells them hey i work my a$$ of here for my $ so i can give u a decent job for a little less money and then they dont like the outcome even thoe they wanted to spend less $ to get something quick. I figured this out when i certain person off IA brought in his on paint that was cheap as hell and wanted it to look like some paint bucky uses that cost 3 times as much......? ANSWER NOT GOING TO HAPPEN.

And if you can't understand my none spelling none grammer using shi* then kiss my ass anyway's and pray that i go back to school bitches:2up:

Bull Sh!t!!! No shop takes a car down to metal to paint and all that work for just $1200. Much less take a car down to metal. If there was any major dents or tons of dings that truck has more bondo than bondo themself. How many black paint jobs have you seen? im guessing 1.

I agreed you should have taken it up with Mike in person. It looks like it was left to your friends to start sh!t:doh:

Man I live with him, I also had a hand in the sol prepping too. So hell yeah I am going to say something. And I said nothing but the truth, about growing a sack. Now that Mike and Clean_sol has something worked out, the bashing continues.

Well if its worked out then someone should lock the thread.

A lot of people misunderstood the copy of the thread I posted from that 04coorscan guy. That was not my post, and i was asking what happened and why it got deleted. SO I wasnt trying to take or strip anyones business from them, sorry if it seemed that way. Besides these threads I have no beef with you either, or anyone for that matter. I dont really even know any of you, so what is there to have a beef with. I just want people I know to be treated fair, and seeing as it is being cleared up thats good.

Yes it was me that posted the first "heated session". HOWEVER, let me make a few obvious pointers here.

#1) If you don't have experience in doing something, either a) practice it and become good enough to offer the service or b) don't charge someone an arm/leg for being a "test rabbit".

#2) I have owned my own business and honestly I would have never let something leave my store looking like that knowing my name/shop was all over it.

#3) I really felt that the second time Justin took the car in, all would be ok, but again it wasn't.

Now with all this said, yes I came at Bucky all wrong, but the reason I didn't do it in PM's is because I didn't want to hide anything. I have been painting cars and interior pieces for people for almost 15 years (Yikes my age is showing) and to charge that kind of money for that type of job is not right. That's how I feel and I didn't want to hide that from anyone. Bucky may not like the way I came at him, and honestly if I was in his shoes, I wouldn't like it either.......but if you are going to offer a service that you aren't familiar with or if it doesn't reflect what your other work does...then the same price shouldn't given. Anybody who has ever painted anything recently should know how much paint costs....especially for a car as small as a Sol...and there is a lot of I suppose "labor" built into that 1g.

But the key to a good job is patience and taking your time....a good paint job can't be rushed and can't be slapped on it and it all be good. Prep is key.

Regardless of what happened, I will apologize to Bucky AND to Justin for butting in where I shouldn't have been, but since I have experience in painting.....I honestly felt like Justin was being taken. If Bucky makes the paint right, cool....if Justin has to wait for me to do it....cool. I just know like alot of people have said, he has been dropping a lot of money into the car and he just wants it to be nice....and I can't blame him. I will also do whatever I can to help him acheive that as well.

So in conclusion....I think I have covered all that I wanted to say, if I missed anything, I am sorry.....Im trying to type all of this while I watch my 1 year old tear up my office!!

This is rediculous. All of this nut swinging and hating is really just unnecessary.

I don't know clean_sol, nor have I ever seen his car, so I have no comments on that. But I did have Bucky repaint/match one of my now sold BBS RGR's and I was very pleased with the outcome (the buyer of the wheels was, too), especially for the price. I actually took it to a few very well known wheel repair shops around town and they either said they flat out couldn't match the color or wanted a stupid amount of money to do so. I wouldn't hesitate to have him do more wheels for me at all.

i have been in the buis for a long time and this whole incedent is nothing new. coors can is right and i know this from this situation. i honestly think that bucky could have priced the job higher and gave better quality. but in his defense that was at least 2k under what i would have charged for a color change without buffing the car. i think that was a sort of hookup and a low price to help bring in the buisness. word to bucky......no matter how you sell your stuff, never sell it short. just dont bother with the job if you will have to go through hell to get nothing in the end. on the other hand your name is now out there . no one has 100 percent feedback on body and paint work. it really is the hardest skilled labor job to get in other folks eyes..... right.
keeep in mind people that there is no perfect paintjob...ever,ever. nowhere. NOBODY CAN SPRAY A PERFECT PAINTJOB FREE OF SURFACE TRASH AND MINOR BLEMISHES. that being said maybe this can be worked out amongst yourselves, if not you can always resort to bashing and other sorts. it really works, bad word of mouth is considered free advertisement, just is something i try and stay away from. thats why my paint work is far and few between. then when i do a job i try and price it on the customers projected attitude and problems i might encounter due to the paintjob bargain hunter.

another thing i dont feel its proper to pay to be a sponsor, but be free from negative comments because you are. this site has extreme moderation problems.

hmm where to start.


well first this thread it stupid. justin knew he could come to me with any problems. i told him in the begining the car would prob need buffing and i wasnt completely comforable with buffing black. there was so much said i really dont know what to address in this.

the $1k price tag. i spent between $350 and 400 in paint. then add the tape and all. i am not like the big body shops that charge 500 for a all over, i cant mix my own paint and have little money in it. i know if had bought the paint at my local store the price would have been even more. so for my profit and time invested he got a hell of a deal. i do have a family to support, a shop and house to pay for, bills :blah: and that profit didnt pay very much i promise. most of my customers can tell you that my prices are way cheap. i hear all the time " you need to charge more" so obviously i am to kind to everyones wallet

this is not my first all over job but it is the first in this shop and booth. alot of the problems stem from the setup. lighting mainly. but i dont make enough profit as it is to put more lighting in it. electrician, materials etc.

everyone knows i have been more than willing to fix the few problems my customers have had. and i pushed alot of work out of the way to take justins car back to work on, and i would do it again if thats whats needed. thats the reason this thread is stupid. i have never told him that i wouldnt work on the car anymore. if he is set on getting the car resprayed then i will do it at my loss$.


to the people that say i had plenty of time. :2up: try running a shop by your self, (bills, work load, phone calls, customers coming in, etc) have a wife and 9 month old daughter at home. try working on 4 or more projects at a time to keep everyone happy. work 7 days a week and then tell me how that is. yea my friends help out an hr or 2 a week and i am very grateful that they do it. i couldnt do it without them but its still not enough some times.


justin got his car back "subpar" but as stated above i just ran out of time. he had to have the car back and he got it back. i wanted to wetsand the car but just didnt have time. i wasnt 100% happy with the car but all it needs it a wetsand and buff. the foundation is there for what he wants.

justin and i have already discusd what is needed and it will be delt with. everyone will go on happy and say HI at meets and :blah: . this is just the normal IA drama.

to the people that say i had plenty of time. :2up: try running a shop by your self, (bills, work load, phone calls, customers coming in, etc) have a wife and 9 month old daughter at home. try working on 4 or more projects at a time to keep everyone happy. work 7 days a week and then tell me how that is. yea my friends help out an hr or 2 a week and i am very grateful that they do it. i couldnt do it without them but its still not enough some times.


justin got his car back "subpar" but as stated above i just ran out of time. he had to have the car back and he got it back. i wanted to wetsand the car but just didnt have time. i wasnt 100% happy with the car but all it needs it a wetsand and buff. the foundation is there for what he wants.

justin and i have already discusd what is needed and it will be delt with. everyone will go on happy and say HI at meets and :blah: . this is just the normal IA drama.

:goodjob:

the $1k price tag. i spent between $350 and 400 in paint. then add the tape and all. i am not like the big body shops that charge 500 for a all over, i cant mix my own paint and have little money in it. i know if had bought the paint at my local store the price would have been even more. so for my profit and time invested he got a hell of a deal. i do have a family to support, a shop and house to pay for, bills :blah: and that profit didnt pay very much i promise. most of my customers can tell you that my prices are way cheap. i hear all the time " you need to charge more" so obviously i am to kind to everyones wallet

And this is why this thread is now done. Bucky is the man, Mushroom Toy is a douche and shouldn't have REPOSTED A FUKING THREAD THAT WAS DELETED IN THE FIRST PLACE. :slap:
