show me some pics with some relfections on the paint, or under sodium lights, then we can get a better idea

well with it being a solid colour its hard to show it off and the quality of our work is pretty good!

here is a nice car we did a full respray on and then the owner took it away and fitted it all up!

well done on your first full paint of a car Its a shame it was pink but at least it was a vauxhall, you will certainly remember it

Your bodyshop obviously has a very very good reputation to have those kind of cars going through it, people that own cars like that are ultra picky about where the cars go for work. You are obviously learning form the right people int he trade

Well done looks good and the pics are cool, I still very impressed by the gullwing that is a car you may never even see again let alone work on again!!

not for the price she was paying we wernt and they were screwed on through the outside, the other booth is a big booth and to hot isnt good as it makes the colours especially silvers go all patchy!
