As per the title, how much should I budget to get my AGM WLR (full bodywork) professionally spray painted in 2 pack.

Cheers

HOw long is a peice fo string.

Ive seen good results on a £500 job and crap results on a £2000 one.

Get some personal reviews on your local bodyshops, pop and see them, see the facilities and the work they are doing, then when they quote youl be able to make better view on the value.

WIth no prep work and deilivering them just panels will keep the cost down. But there is not really an 'average' price when it comes to bodywork.

Got any colleges near you? A guy I used to work with had his car painted by the students at the local college, all he had to do was supply the paint. I've not seen the results but everyone who has say's it looks good.

Mates rates I guess but he has done it for a few of my friends. He used to work for jct600 so he is spot on.

I'm just practicing spraying at moment. It's not ad easy as he makes it look lol

He is based in dewsbury.

interesting! there's not many painters round here i trust to do a decent job

finish is one thing but longevity is quite another it seems

Finding someone prepared to spray 2 pack nowadays is getting dificult mainly because it's outlawed by EEC regulations due to the fact it's cyanide based.
have you thought of getting it wrapped.
