I had my bottom repainted ($1300, plus $500 haul out), and after 1 month it's peeling off in a number of places. The shop is trying to blame it on the surface prep of previous layers (this is definitely partially true). This makes sense to me, but what are your thoughts? If it needed to be stripped down, they should've said that, rather than telling me to go ahead and have it painted and see how it goes, because obviously the paint was a total waste. I'll now have to have it stripped and repainted again in the spring.
That shop offered to give me a free coat of paint, but I'd still have the pay the additional haul out fee ($500). In addition, I'm a bit skeptical of going back to a shop that gave me such a crap paint job in the first place. I'm thinking of asking for a refund, but I doubt they'll do that since this is partially the fault of previous layers of paint. Still, they should've refused the work unless I authorized a total paint strip, which would've been another $2500.
Here are photos of a bottom job that's less than 1 month old:
