This is the latest to come from Antonio Geraldo in Puerto Penasco, Mx. Keep in mind this is only 65 miles from the Arizona border and 1/3 the price of Extreme, etc. You live in it on 50 amps while being painted.

Twig,

I can't get the FB page to open.

This is the starting to be the perfect time to have the work done in Puerto PeƱasco. Temps are cooling off but the ocean is about as warm as it's going to get. Low infection rate too.

Not only 1/3 the price but no one can do the graphics like Antonio can.

I think we're next in line.  Be there in 2 weeks and Antonio will be starting body work and a full-body paint job October 3rd.  We'll be working with David on re-upholstery while there.  So excited!

Easiest place to communicate with Antonio is Facebook messenger.. lots of pictures there of past jobs as well as jobs in progress. I miss seeing that family and I will return.

Antonio will post a video of it in progress. I believe if you now open the link it will work without being on facebook. Hopefully it's fixed.
not fixed for me...

Don't feel bad, was looking at my not yet two year old paint from Xtreme this afternoon and noticed I was missing some, rubbed my hand over it and it and more came off, not happy! They are held up as the gold standard! We spent 18CB with Xtreme and they forgot to bolt on the panels when they did the headlight conversion and now the paint is coming off.

Have an appointment with Antonio Geraldo in Puerto Penasco February 16, 2023 for a full body repaint on our 2003 40' U320. Lots of great references from 2 years ago, anyone been there in 2023?

I would be curious to hear from those that had a full paint job done there as to how the paint has held up, and how it looks after a year or so.

Better than new and looks the same after 10+years, but probably matters a lot who does the work, how it is prepared, quality & quantity of clear coat, experience, and care of tech. . .

Odd question as all paint jobs depend on many factors, some in our control.

Barry and Cindy, yours is an Xtreme paint job.

If you follow the posts, Lon and Cheryl are asking how Antonio's paint jobs are holding up.  Different question.

We've been here since October 1 and have seen Antonio a few times.  He's super busy, but sending his crew to do wash, wax and buff before we leave mid December. 

We had full body paint and body work done by him 2 years ago.  The paint job has held up extremely well in spite of baking in the desert sun much of the year. 

Antonio stands behind his work.  We had a small minor bubbles on one bay door from heat on a dark spot of the paint.  When we got back the following year,, Antonio took care of fixing it, quickly and without question.  Super guy, always a pleasure to work with and we recommend him without hesitation.

Yeah I second antonio. He did a good job on my coach but there were some issues with paint bubbling and peeling on the back passenger side from AC condensation. I think just inadequate prep at that area. Last year I went back down and he took care of it using some of the paint that I had from him after he was finished. So far no issues with the repair.
I wouldn't hesitate to recommend Antonio and his crew.

I'll be heading out Dec 30th from Savannah, stopping in Nac and then continuing on to PP to have Antonio to do a full body paint on the 2001 U320. I'm very excited for the journey and looking forward to picking up the coach in late Feb to see the results!

Had mine done all last month down in PP by Abel (he worked with Antonio and branched off). Overall pleased with the work. There are a few things he needs to correct my next visit.

Still waiting for a cost of paint. ?

Mike- I don't think they need to tell you the price, it's their prerogative. Some folks don't want to share things like this, nor should they if they so desire. If you want to know cost, why not contact Antonio/Abel directly?
