Paint Repair Sydney

youraveragepunter · 01-27-2014, 06:58 PM

Hi,

Has anyone in /Sydney used one of those mobile paint repair guys? if so what were the results like? and what warranties are given?

Ive a little scratch to repair, no panel damage and would rather not claim insurtance if these type repairs are reliable

Tell me what you've experienced

Cheers

How bad is the damaged? like how deep is it? maybe all it needs is a polish??

Picture would help.

Seen their work first hand on various cars and have recommended him to other clients before. I even recommended him to work on a Ferrari F40 I detailed.

ok so you guys think this is suitable for patch repair or best paint the whole boot? panels are straight still......

Damn that's nasty!

Does your fingernail catch on the scratches? I'm guessing it would, but maybe try polishing?

youraveragepunter · 01-29-2014, 06:12 AM

yep theyll catch, its deep polish wont fix it

youraveragepunter · 01-29-2014, 06:16 AM

another angle

Contact them and send a pic? And ask them your questions.

That would be the best approach.

Chances are, they'll spray the boot...

Polishing will do nothing, until it's sanded. I wouldn't recommend sanding that either, firstly it's original paint and secondly it's a very sensitive area close to the edges.

If you want a quote for spraying the boot, send me your best contact number via PM.
