Just a few hints on saving money and get a better job. I needed to paint my Cat 320L excavator and I knew the Cat paint wouldnt hold up, So;
1. bought the smallest quantity of Cat paint $22
2. took to automotive store and had them match the paint, with a quatity paint $158 a gallon.
3. went to local sign shop and had them download the decals I needed and print them ,$180 and they looked great and still does after 2 years. I have also have them come out and take pictures and make them from the pictures.
I figured I saved about $500 and ended up with a better product
But thats what I did
