Vehicles & Servicing Vehicle Body Repair Shop

That is just really unnecessary ... in the land of bad parking yet... must have been a foreigner most likely an American. Sorry Rye, hope you get it fixed to your liking and hope that guy's A$$ grows together

 

I used Bman for a damage repair and resprayed. They did a good job. Only thing for me they were a fair ways out in Sibulan getting home after dropping car there.

 

The up side is Black is possibly the easiest colour to match, down side if they polish it wrong it is the easiest colour to get buff swirl marks. A good painter and equipment reduces the polishing needed. A clean paint job out of the oven is the best job with no polishing. New paints don't need polish unless it has runs or dirt in the paint.

Just ask them to remove door handles, moulds, petrol flap, bumper etc rather than masking them with tape. If it cost a little extra better off paying.

 

Just did you a estimate of what it would cost in Aust at a 1/2 decent repair shop.

40,394p

 

Is there anyone in the city that does Ceramic Topcoat?
I had a car with ceramic topcoat. A couple of times someone dragged their bodywork across my bumper. When I got home their paint came off with a rag and some gasoline.

The paint on my fairly new Toyota scratches if it brushes anything, even a twig hanging out from the side of the road.

 

Most Ceramic coat clears are on Mercedes and some Audi. A few other brands but mainly these. Its a great product but you really need to be a skilled painter and have good equipment.

From a spray painters point cerami clear is a pain in the @ss. You have a window of a few hrs after bake cycle to polish out any imperfections. I'm guessing in Duma the standard of the spray booth is not too good and imperfections in the paint (dust) would be common hence giving a poor finish.

 

Very vindictive person who ever they are. They should confront the person who parked the car and not key the car.

 

Rye did you get the car done? If so how is it.
