Touch up paint shops
Have problems with your aircraft? Maybe just questions about how best to tune or adjust something? Regs or maintenance? Need to know the best way to do something?

Any recommendations for a paint shop that does touch up stuff? I've got a '55 180 that has an older paint job, still looks good from 50 feet, but....
All it really needs is touch up, wing tips, landing gear, spinner, things like that.
I'm in the NW (Yakima)
Thanks for your input and advice.

If you pull an inspection plate and take it to a Auto Body Paint place, they can match your paint and put it in spray cans. They are pretty pricey, about $18/can last time I did it. They are good cans too with an Oval spray pattern.

Thanks for the info George and Jerry.
I never thought of auto body shops, my neighbor owns one, does a lot of custom work. Great idea!
