At the time Maestro would paint every paintscheme wanted by the customer (and at a way better quality than colnago did) best thing way the colnago guarantee stayed intact. Had my C40 done in the saronni style and they did a perfect job (whereas Colnago never seemed able to get the red colour right going from red-brown tot red-purple)
Totally agree, Maestro paint jobs were amazing. I still see some amazing C40, C50 colour schemes in the UK and you know they were carried out by Maestro. As I understand the painter took retirement and that was that. There was only 1 guy who carried out paint jobs from Benelux for Maestro.
Sad day when he retired.
