had a contaminant in the basecoat on the tailgate, got that fixed under warranty but apart from that its been excellent, polish and wax it every 3 months and it still looks like its just been sprayed. you definately get what you pay for thats for sure

paint came in today
picked the tins up and looked at the names and codes and noticed one was diffrent

B52P waien blue pearl
so poped the lid and its was wrong, it was bassically a gun metal grey.
so spoke with the dude who dropped it off and he called into the head office

someone stuffed up along the line, they missed out a '0' in the code
B520P is the code but they mixed up B52P
so tommorow he will have the colour mixed up and brought in
