I had the driver's side painted all the way to the front fender and the liftgate done.
Cost was $1000 and that painter swore up and down he would not do another WDT because of the blending. That is the toughest part with the ground coat and top coat is matching the amount of coverage/coats to blend with the rest/OEM paint that is not being painted.
I can look hard enough and see a difference in the drivers door vs. the drivers front fender.
Average Joe will not. So ask questions to your painter about their confidence in the 3 stage process.
Thank you for the reply. May I ask what happened to yours that it needed to be repainted?
I took a look at the pics in page 12 of your thread and I'd say your painter did a good job. Can't tell from those pics that there's a difference in the door & fender. The 3 stage process is why I'm hesitant to take it to just any old paint shop that the adjuster recommends; I'd rather talk directly to the painters and see how they feel about doing WDT.
