Krzys Posted July 30, 2014 Share Posted July 30, 2014 Thanks Stephen! That is what I thought too. Plus if I got another tatty car, it wouldn't be a problem for me I done a bit more to it yesterday, more filling and sanding. Still not quite perfect but she's getting there. It's all time consuming but I enjoy itThat's where most of the cost of getting cars painted goes, it's 90% prep and 10% paint! Well might not be quite that but you get the idea!

Well might not be quite that but you get the idea! When I first got the Aerodeck, I asked the people in the accident repair centre if they can quote me on fixing the dents, rust-spot and a respray. It's a 600 quid job and that's on the rear quater panel and arch only! Now that I nearly done the filling, I asked them just to respray the filled in patches (obviously the whole panels will need respraying) and now they quoted me £180 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mad isn't it!? Only problem is if after 6 months it starts to bubble they probably won't accept responsibility for it as they didn't do the prep work.
