Well i have been an apprentice paint sprayer for about 18months now and have done alot of spraying o cars but due to our bodyshop dealing mainly in the higher end of the market of cars i very rarely get to do a full respray on a car untill last week!

All the guys at work know i love my vauxhall`s and when this came in it was my ideal car to practice on and wot a beuty it was!
I basically did everything start to finish on it include sort out a huge dent in the door and also just behind the door in the quater.
Anyway to what we all love (PICS) this is the beuty after it was finished and please note that the lady didnt want any dents doing apart from the 2 very big ones in the doors!












In The spraybooth:



In all its glory:









Also here are some other cars that you may appreciate that are nearly as a high spec as the corsa van!







and finally the guy came to pick up this heap of junk!







Hope u like!

can only get half in at a time so it has to be turned round after spraying the back end then do the whole front end!

how can we tell the quality of your paintwork from a few badly taken pics?

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