LingLing Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 Using the old post: as above, anywhere within 1 hour of akl is fine. now, there's fair bit of work to Do. Budget has now blown! Tomorrow I am going to try: Davies and Naylor Panel and Paint, Onehunga to let them check my car out. IF you can guys can suggest Rust Removal places/anybody can help me with I will be very appreciated. The Bottom line is guy who does my car has to have Great knowledge in Panel Beating and cutting and welding. After talking to sheepers tonight, my budget is completely blown. So Good but not expensive will do. Pay cash and as usual, I can do 80% of the prep work, taking panels off, sanding etc, for the cutting and welding But will leave the whole respraying side to the pros. 021 269 8650 or pm.

azzurro Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 just sprayed mine, never used a spray gun before, i would say its a good 6 foot job was easier than i thought but having a good booth/setup to do it in would make it much easier to do and give a better finish also prep prep prep, then prep again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SP450andLE Posted January 12, 2012 Share Posted January 12, 2012 Andy, there is a thread on here somewhere that has a list of all different places that do different things (painting, panelbeating etc). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LingLing Posted January 12, 2012 Author Share Posted January 12, 2012 I would do it myself surely, but, I just don't have a room to do it!! > Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LingLing Posted January 15, 2012 Author Share Posted January 15, 2012 No one really want help me? I can do all the sanding etc, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0R10N Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 could try Rob's Body Shop on Ellice Rd Glenfield or somewhere like GT Refinishers in Penrose? I think any painter would be keen especially if you're saying you'll do the prep yourself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snoozin Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 ^ on the contrary, a lot won't be either, or won't guarantee their job if you do prep yourself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0R10N Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 Yeah sorry, meant to say what Ricardo said. Monday-itis ftw. I plan to give GT Refinishers a go. Need a few things done on the AW11. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SP450andLE Posted January 15, 2012 Share Posted January 15, 2012 I'll ask my boss (Steve Levine from Imagin-Airing Custom Art ltd) how much he'll do it for. If he's keen, It'll probably be cost of paint + a little extra for his time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Llama Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 I need a teensy bit done on my left wing. Might just take it someplace local, but I've been scared of it coming out different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0R10N Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Wait til after Nats is done and dusted before you go see Grant, shit is mental down there at the mo. yup, this I can imagine! Have some WOF-related shit to fix first anyway, then I'll go see him, which prob won't be until late Feb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evan Posted January 16, 2012 Share Posted January 16, 2012 Dont know if GT refinishers will do andys thing if he doesnt want to pay much. they seem to run a minimum standard they wish to achieve and therefore theres a minimum price. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
