Paintshops in Dorset, Somerset or London?

Post by GeorgeHurst »

Hello all,
My paintwork is really starting to show its age. I've had an abortive attempt at painting a few areas but really the whole car needs doing.

Does anyone know of a good paintshop or chap with a paintgun that is reliable and more importantly cheap?
I live between Dorset, Somerset and London so anywhere near to these places would be convenient. Any contacts would be greatly appreciated.

Also, has anyone a rough idea of how much a full respray would cost? (to the nearest 100?) I would be stripping most of car myself and having it painted in Dove Grey, oh, and its a 2dr saloon.

Many thanks for reading! :D
George

paint resprays can vary quite a bit from £900.00 to £3000.00 depends on what you want.
by the way the paint code for dove grey is bmc gr 26 and the formula is

white p 030-9929 87%
black p 030-9901 10%
yellow oxide p 030-9911 2&
turkey red oxide p 030-9915 1%
