Body-work on Cars -- Choosing a Shop
My Supra's been running like new and turning heads for 23 years, and I want to get it a proper body-and-paint job. No dents, but rust here and there, esp above the wheel-wells, all the way through in small spots.
For years I've been sanding to bare, applying Bondo or somesuch, smoothing, and spray-painting (black). My "body-work" may last a couple months.
What do I say or ask at prospective shops (besides how much)? What's the technical description for the type of work that will last longer than the way I've been doing it?
Are some kinds of paints better than others? Do I want more than one coat?
If I should expect a written warranty, what would it basically say?
(Thanks, guys. Sorry to have used the wrong forum but couldn't find the right one.)

Body-work on Cars -- Choosing a Shop
Thanks for all the straight talk. It's back to the Bondo. For as long as it -- or the owner -- holds out. (At least I don't have to keep looking back at it every time I park it. Or pay extra for collision coverage.)
