The Real Truth About Paint, Products & Process (w/ Jeff Matauch)

In this episode of Automotive Legends, we sit down with industry educator and restoration expert Jeff Matauch to break down two very different builds — and the process discipline behind both. We discuss: • A driver-quality 1965 Mustang restoration • A full custom 1954 Chevy 3100 3-Window build • The difference between driver and show-level standards • Common mistakes shops make during restoration • Why process and documentation matter • Product selection and why Jeff prefers certain PPG systems over others This conversation goes beyond surface-level talk. It’s about craftsmanship, refinement, and doing restoration work the right way. If you're building classics, running a shop, or striving to elevate your paint and body standards — this episode delivers real, applicable insight.
