Does anyone have any recommendations for a paint shop in the Texas area? We are looking to get our Citation Bravo painted. I have searched the thread and have not found much.

Would like some information on quality, price, and downtime.

Cost is not a big deal if it is good quality and not an excessive downtime.

I know there are tons of variables depending on the paint scheme and size of airplane but it can still give me a ballpark figure.

Thanks in advance for the info.

Not in Texas, but can recommend West Star ALN.

Expect $60k(ish) for a CE550.
