We Paint Anything: Maaco’s Most Unconventional Paint Jobs

#WePaintAnything – and we really mean it!

At Maaco, we’re known for giving cars a fresh start with sleek, professional paint jobs. But sometimes, our spray booths get a little more… creative. In our recent social media campaign, #WePaintAnything, we asked our franchise owners to show off their wildest, most non-car paint projects — and they delivered in style.

From vintage vending machines to a 50-year-old rooster, these standout submissions prove one thing: when we say we paint anything, we mean it. Here’s a look at some of the most unique paint jobs Maaco shops across the country have tackled — and absolutely nailed.

A Legendary Rooster Gets a Fresh Coat

When a restaurant across the street from Maaco Bridgeport needed help reviving a 50-year-old fiberglass rooster, they turned to the pros. This rooster had been a part of the restaurant's identity for decades, moving with them from location to location.

John Terrizzi and his team gave the towering bird new life with a clean, vibrant paint job — honoring its legacy while ensuring it continues turning heads for the next 50 years. Now that’s what we call feathered flair.

The Rocket That Reached New Heights

"Do you paint rockets?" a caller asked. Without missing a beat, Chris and Janelle Davis from Maaco Laguna Nigel responded: “Sure! We paint anything.”

The rocket came in, and the team got to work. The end result? A clean, polished finish that looks just as impressive blasting off as it does in the paint booth. This one takes the prize for the most aerodynamic submission in our campaign.

A Vintage Coca-Cola Machine Gets a Sweet Makeover

Nothing screams nostalgia like a classic Coca-Cola vending machine. When an ice cream shop owner found a 1951 model to feature in his storefront, he wanted it to pop — and Maaco Penndel made it happen.

Thomas Andrews Jr. and his crew restored the iconic red finish, giving it that unmistakable retro charm. It now stands as a picture-perfect showpiece for customers craving something cool and classic.

Zamboni in a Day? No Problem.

Maaco in Peoria, IL – owned by Bob Pohl

Just two days before Thanksgiving, the Peoria Civic Center reached out with a chilling emergency: their Zamboni was too worn down to maintain the ice rink before opening day.

Bob Pohl and his team at Maaco Peoria jumped into action, transforming the tired machine into a glossy, vibrant blue beauty — complete with decals — all in under 24 hours. Talk about going the extra mile for the community! It’s now a fan favorite on the rink and a shining example of Maaco’s speed, skill, and heart.

Precision Paint for a Red Bull Challenge

Maaco in Indianapolis, IN – owned by the Sayyah family

Matching a corporate color and logo isn’t easy — especially when it’s the bold branding of Red Bull. But when Sam Sayyah from Maaco Indianapolis took on a Red Bull car paint challenge, his team rose to the occasion.

This wasn’t just about matching color — it was about capturing the spirit and energy of the brand with every detail. The result was a head-turning vehicle that looks like it rolled straight out of a commercial shoot.

Whether it's a rocket, a rooster, or a retro vending machine, Maaco shops across the country are proving that creativity knows no bounds. These unconventional paint jobs show that our franchisees have the skills, tools, and vision to bring any object — not just vehicles — back to life.
