If your around Coburg goto Concord Panels (my old work) they are pretty cheap compared to other places, say that I (andy) sent you and they should look after you

thanks mate, $700 does sound a bit steep, but it all depends on the condition (dents, chips) and if there are paint defects (flakeing, crazing etc) and type of paint (pearl, metallic, solid). for $700 sounds like bare-metaling might be involved, what area in melbourne are you in?

thats crazy, nice job mate

as long as you dont apply heavy coats of any product that has a substantial amount of thinners in it you should be ok. i wouldn't worry about it having too much material either, it sounds like it'll be ok

Hey guys, thought some might be interested in this, i spotted this VP Calais in Thailand a few years back

thanks, lol yeah im a spray painter. i did it at trade school which is rediculously cheap and cost me $300 for the lot. but to pay someone to do it your probably looking at 1.5-3k depending on where you go and condition of the body. but you generally get what you pay for. how much did your...

thanks mate, yeah i have painted it, thats an older picture

and it's only not normal to apply a clearcoat if its a direct gloss colour.

what colour are you doing it? are you doing this yourself? if so are you removing the doors? the steps i would take if i were doing this on my own car Remove the doors (need a door pin removal tool) I'd remove them so you can clean and scuff the surface thouroughly clean surface with wax...

for those who want to learn airbrushing fast these guys offer night classes, i hear they are really good, even if your a shithouse drawer Airbrush Venturi is $315 for the course, 1 night a week for 8 weeks When i get the time I'll defs take this course but very nice work on the airbrushing...

the crack will come back by doing it like that

if it's started its probably already too late. but if other parts are looking they they might me next maybe a bit of wax might help.

400 might be a bit course, especially a new peice. maybe use 600 or 800. the scratches will be easier to fill without comprimising adhesion. but everything else is spot on

Hey guys, im a spray painter, that will need to be paint stripped, or there will be no guarantee of it not happening again. 1,500 is pretty cheap, especially if paint stripping is involed. Just make sure there work is good and they guarantee thier work. The paint defect in the picture can...
