Wonder if either shows up on WifeFax?

I dunno...but I think it's kinda like this:

someone "died" = car "painted"
someone "passed away" = "car sprayed"

Respray - Something my Poodle does to our mailbox post every time we go to get the mail. To cover some others work he feels was inferior.

I've always wondered... how come a person can refresh, but they can't fresh?

Thumbs up

sorry to bring this thread back on topic, I recently had my car repainted/resprayed. some day I will inevitably have to explain it to a buyer. and for that reason I took daily photos of the process. so call it what you will. the documentation should define it. turned out magnificently by the way if anyone needs a good shop that is now familiar with the 993, contact Osceola Auto Body in Osceola, WI. Ask for Dan.

My personal definition of a respray is paint on paint. Repaint is paint on primer after de-paint.

I just went for an estimate to 'respray' my front bumper with bumperette delete. Part of reason for this is to correct a color miss-match problem after a 'repaint' in 2009. The reason for the 'repaint' is a long story but it did not include any metal/bondo work or color change. The body shop said they will not 'respray' the bumper. They send it out to be media-blasted to plastic then 'repaint'.
