im wanting a flip or rage paint job,not sure of flip colour but base diamond black with a flip,probably an orange fleck.

hopefully i can get someone like pps peter from sunderland/peterlee,anyone have his number he may be able to recomend someone as last time a seen him he was just selling parts from a shop in sunderland and had packed the spraying work in.

thanks jay

Theres also a Guy on Preston Farm opposite the Vauxhall garage... ive been told by a few people hes not cheap but also very good?

 

The Guy from Eaglescliffe body shop repairs lives round the corner from me. have you heard anything about his work?

 

I ned some bits doing as well...

I know it's a fair distance from you (Harlow in Essex), but I can't recommend the guys from Custom Exotics highly enough. They do excatly what they say and have high expectations from themselves ;)

WTF. My dad actually invented the Rage Chameleon Flip paint. no bull. he also has created a paint which is magnetised, and spreads evenly over metal surfaces. ideal for councils spraying bar fences and lamposts etc....

 

He used to have the Eddie Stobart and British Airways Contracts, for painting planes and lorries etc.. but his business was shut down due to people working for him with fake permits. Wasnt his fault, he never they where fake.

 

Anyways. He is in south which is gonna be no good for you. As he does still do paint jobs on the side, at home in a heated garage.

But having said that Jay. aint anyone who can do a rage paint job like him :P

shit this country,loosing your company over dodgy permits

hey if he really is the guy who invented this paint .pm me his tel number pl.

for the right paint finish id go to the moon

 

im wanting something different so maybe he can do it.cheers jay

Will call him tomorrow as I have day of, He will be home after 2.30pm.

 

He defo made the paint. Had a good 60 litres of it sat in his garage last ime I saw him lol. He also has like a mirror finish electric blue, which he just sprayed his range rover in.

 

dont start to him about permits though. he wasnt hiring in the first place, but as all his employees were British, he got fined for discrimination, and had to hire immigrants (which he does discriminate against, but thats not the point) then he lost his business over it.

 

Great painter though. Mother divorced him when I was 2. him and cars, thats all she says. apparently he sprayed his capri so many times back in the early 80s they went shopping and forgot what colour the car was - literally.

 

Its the prep work thats most important. Only thing he hasnt sprayed is chrome. which is a shame..... as its what I want, but with red tint over it lol.

No good to you i bet, but i know a good guy in Birmingham.

Can show you some of his work first too.

Hi Jay, spoke to my dad, he said he is manic at the moment.

 

He has 4 vehicles to paint over the next couple of months, and as its not his current Job, he just fits it in when he can.

 

I asked him about painting mine, he told me to do the prep work, any removalable panels, remove them, so all nooks and crannies are also ready. I literally have to strip it, rub it down, Hire a compressor and gun, Apply a grey high build primer, rub it down again and tack it as high build gets dusty, then apply a black standard primer, rub it down again, so any imperfections show through as grey high build, once ready, I have to call him, get a date he can come over, then I have to hire industrial compressor which he can use his gun on, four large halogen heaters for the date specified, so he can spray the paint in the morning, and get coats done every 20-25 mins. He reckons he cant spare more than a day though. even for his only son :(

 

I have sprayed cars myself before, and had impressive results for my first attempt at a whole car, it was only block colours but its nothing on what he can do. Unfortunately my font bumper wasnt prepped properly, and the wheels really let the car down. These pics were before the font mesh was installed.

 

Anyway here is some pics of what I personally did:
