Dozer   13 #44 Posted February 13, 2013 (edited) so do they do the spray work at your house?  That's right -- BMV come 'round to your house and spray there. The work was very tidy and quiet. The end result was a perfect colour match that has not faded, although it's only been five-six months.  I got the recommendation originally from Sheffield Forum. I had never had work like that done at home so I peppered him with lots of questions by email. He was very patient with me, and a good explainer. Edited February 13, 2013 by Dozer Correct typo.

Itrytoplease   10 #45 Posted February 13, 2013 I saw this first thing this morning, and thought " What bloody fool want's to paint his mudguards/bumpers" Only for a second or two, but I did think it, I remember waxing the car and polishing the bumpers with chrome cleaner, Yes Children, they were made of chrome - once. Mary Hopkins rings a bell - Those were the days my friends Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...

Â I'm wanting both the front and rear bumpers fully re spraying, I would of thought it would have to be five in a proper paint shop, and I would of thought the paint would go flat out in the cold damp air Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
Dozer   13 #47 Posted February 13, 2013 Hi Shefcyclerep -- I see what you mean, and to be honest you probably know more about it than me. I know next-to-nothing about cars.  All I know is he did a nice fill-patch-paint on my saloon in my drive, and it was quick, and still looks nice. Come to think of it though, that was in the fall. Might be a different story in mid-winter.  He struck me as an honest chap, so it might be worth putting your question directly to him via the email address on his website (see above). If you do, could you let us know what you think? I'd like to make sure I'm not recommending him for something inappropriate in future.  Hope you find a good solution.

jonnyenglish   10 #48 Posted February 13, 2013 never get a "chips away" type repairer "round your house" to do stuff like that , especially in this weather , the cold and damp will be under paint , the paint finish will suffer and the overhaul quality of the job will be RUBBISH even if it looks "nice and shiny" to have your bumpers painted properly they need to be removed from your vehicle which these types of repairers do not do ,then they need prepairing in a warm dry area then for the best finish they need painting in a dust free air flowing booth which is at the correct temp for the paint to flow adhere and cure , for a value for money good repair job i will second "the bodyshop" at the bottom of rutland road , john is a very honest bloke and a good job is always provided , i myself work in a large franchise bodyshop chain and been been doing the job for 22 years so i know what im on about !!
