Gelcoating

Hi,

I had to create a bulge in the bonnet to go over the inlet manifold - at the time I simply resprayed the bonnet as it was cheap and quick. Now I think it maybe time to have the bonnet re gelcoated so it matches the rest of the car.

Does anyone know of anyone who can do this for me - I live in Mid Beds near J12 M1..

Thanks

Frank

If you have spray equipment, they do it yourself!

Hate to say it but I think you'd be better respraying the gelcoated bits to match the bonnet..

Having done it in the past, spraying gel coat is a real pain, plus getting the colour exactly the same is bloody hard. If I was you I would just respray the bonnet, much easier. IMHO Ray
