If i cash the 500.00 check, it could mean that I accept the terms of the agreement. its at MD offshore now, stripping starts tomorrow, bottom is perfect... he deleted nearly all of mine, he still has bills up... Bill had to pay out to another shop in cape coral to fix the stuff, Richy was there but not really that helpful.

Story sucks Rob. Two things I find crazy:
1. You didn't lose your temper
2. You didn't cash the check!
I would have done both......
I would say this thread just buried Richy's Custom paint. Ironically he has tons of pics of your boat and Bill's on his facebook page (like he is proud of the work).
Hopefully you get the boat fixed right and back on the water soon!

I have asked him numerous times to please remove the pics of my old boat, but he won't take my calls

The fact that he tried to defend this work and that he tries to blame the customers for this is what is insane to me. He can't honestly think this is good work.
To blame the clients for his estimates? I have blown estimate on jobs before. I mean really blown estimates. I would never compromise the quality of my work because I made a mistake on an estimate. My reputation means more then that. Some times as business owners we make mistakes and it is crazy for us to blame the client for a bad estimate.
Good luck with the new painter Rob!

How people like that get up in the morning and are able to look at themselves in the mirror is beyond me. Can't wait to see the final, properly done product.

I'd bet any amount of money that this all boils down to a bad drug habit.
No other way to explain shoddy work and money disappearing like that......
This really sucks but like others have said, your attitude is great, I wouldn't have handled it even half as well as you did...........
