Is it at the bodyshop you work? Can't you do the prep work, and ask the painter to do it after work?

Not at the bodyshop I work at its one of our other sites in Guildford miles away, would do it myself but would have to take time off, which I don't have

All boils down the fact I'm getting this done for next to nothing, and all sites have a lot of work on but all are short staffed (hols and sick etc)...my car is the lowest priority in my managers eyes, don't have much of a say in the matter

Hey guys

my manager from the other site came to our bodyshop the other day and had a bit of a chat, confirmed with me that the new quarter is now on

did press him for a completion date, weve agreed we are aiming for the end of the month but it still needs panel finishing off and then finding time to get it all prepped and painted as it has to be filtered in around other jobs

but looking good at the mo, couldnt get any pics so soz about that but watch this space and i will know more end of the month
