I’m hearing it’s more of a “you get what you pay for” type deal. They’ll do a good job, if your willing to pay and not cheap out.

Supposedly these were done with Tremclad…I’ve been contemplating the idea for a while too but can’t seem to rationalize it.  
For under $100 it definately would have the best quality/cost ratio

But again, don’t believe everything on the web…

DO NOT go to macco… dont really need to say anything else but i worked in a body shop for 2 years and have only ever heard bad things about them. some of the people i worked with had worked at macco and only told bad story’s about how they cut corners and dont care about the customer etc…BAD choice, i would rather spray paint my car myself than go to macco.

one story involved them cheaping out and filling a hole in a car with a timmies sandwich they didnt want to finish and some tin foil then continuing on with the job. Just dont do it.
