tbh kris i think ur confusing spraying with REspraying. and no im not the big shot, i got loads to learn but in the 4 years ive done bodywork id like to think ive learned something. and funny enuff i dont come from a shell. and i wouldnt even have started this argument with u if u hadnt of quoted my first response and then wrote 'bullshit' normally i would leave you to do things ur own way, even tho its a waste of time but coz u were ignorant thats why i cant leave it.

you meen like my dad then. he owned his own company doin this for 25 years so i think i trust him, im an engineer by trade.
