Ed. note: Sorry, this RFQ is old & outdated, so contact info is no longer available. However, if you feel that something technical should be said in reply, please post it; no public commercial suggestions please ( huh? why?)

RFQ: Small N.E. company seeks to partner with a paint shop that is familiar with CARC painting. Pricing must be competitive - this isn't a $100 hammer opportunity! We're looking for someone who wants to make a profit not a killing. 5 parts = 1 kit. Production of 34 kits/wk at maximum production.
