Book Reviews of Pro Paint & Body

Book Review: Great introduction for the novice
Summary: 4 Stars

I was looking for a book that explained some of the basic restoration/repair principles for a novice. This book does just that. I did not give it 5 stars for two reasons - one is that black and white photos do not really show clearly the points intended. Also, one of the chapters introductions suggests that an explanation of paint technology had already been explained in a previous chapter, but in fact it is in a future chapter. This shows poor proof reading. Nevertheless, I would recommend this book to anybody wanting to learn the basics of automobile body repair and finishing.
