Default Paint shop references

I am just finishing my RV 7. I had planned to paint my plane locally, before it was put together to fly.... but that plan is not really working out. I am seriously considering having Grady at GloCustoms paint my plane. Can anyone who has had Grady paint their plane contact me with your thoughts?

Thanks,

Wayne

All my dealings with Grady have been outstanding Wayne - he delivers what he promises, when he promises it - and he won't promise something that he can't deliver. I has done some touch-up work that was probably my fault (sanding a little too far into cowling honeycomb, and it only cost me for the materials. We just had him paint new wheel pants/fairings for Louise's RV-6, and the work was once again top notch. You can check out my plane in the "Virtual hangar" section of the forums - along with many others he has done.
