I used Tri-D in Elmore Alabama and would not recomend them to anyone. I am very dissatisfied with the work, the time it took, and attitude of the owner. Don't take one or two recomendations get plenty and if any of them are bad find another paint shop.

There is a paint shop in Griffin, GA that painted some RV's that I am familiar with. They do outstanding work and have a very good reputation in the Atlanta area. They were chosen to paint the last AOPA give-a-way. They charge about $7000, last I heard. I can't remember their name but I'm sure a call to the Griffin airport could get the name and number.

Though I'm several months away for my -4, I'm also checking out a paint shop in Sylvania, Ga: Southeastern Aircraft Painting - 912-857-5726, they have done a couple of RV's, on my first visit they were working on a couple of Cessnas - in the spriping phase, looked busy with lots of people working. Also I'm going to check out some guy in Tuscaloosa that is supposed to be good - did Mark Phillips' award winning 6A.

I think the guy in Tuscaloosa may be Bobby Potts. IIRC he uses a base coat/clear coat system which I did not want to use.

I unfortunately used a guy in Elmore AL "Tri-D" to paint my 7A. He was great up until he got my plane in his shop. Also I would try to find a shop close enough that you can check on the project often and see what is being done or not done. Get 8 or 10 recomendations and if any of them is less than great find someone else!!

I've heard about a paint shop at Jackson Co. C GA (19A) from one of the old time AI's at my airport. He has worked with them on several planes and seems to be happy. He's currently got two Navions in line to be painted with them. I'm not sure of their name or if they are familiar with experimentals C but I was planning on checking them out. I've also heard that they are not too backed up with business lately. I suppose this could be a bad sign C but I'm still planning on checking them out.
Has anyone heard of this shop?

I will have to check they may be under new management as they were closed when I was having my plane painted.
