I just got the plane back from the Everett WA paint shop on Saturday, it took them 24 work days from drop-off to pick-up.









After the checkbook cools-off for a few months, a new Garmin panel is next.

Awesome paint job, but I think your pics are actually larger than the plane. Wink (Looks like Q beat me to it.) ETA: looks like you already fixed them.

I like it, looks really sharp! Is there a "before" picture for comparison?

At first, I thought that you’d painted one of our members. Smile

Looks like top tier work. You should definitely never "lose it in the parking lot" at the airport and it should be easy to spot from the ground in that color combo.

I like it. It's not a color I've ever seen a lot on planes or boats.

That is a good looking airplane. Good luck with the new panels, my buddy dropped off his Baron about 8 months and a hundred grand ago. Yikes. He wanted me to partner lol, I love airplanes but I love somebody paying me to fly theirs even better. You sir, have made a beauty though.

Should be able to see that neon green from a long way off, looks great, amazing how good new paint looks.

So did they do any kind of ceramic or graphene nano coating to protect it, or is that something you would have to do/hire out.

Since it's fresh and new and hasn't picked up a ton of bugs yet. I did the 303 Graphene on my motorcycle and it makes the paint super slick and dirt/bugs do not stick.

The real good stuff is the best having a pro come out and do it, might pick up a few MPH and better fuel economy LOL
