Hi, I have some touch up work that I need doing on my fatty, scuff on bumper and stone chips on the bonnet but everywhere I go tries to rip me off.

Hi PDC, I never thought of that, I've left an enquiry with them, let's see what they come back with on Monday.

It is a good idea and they can do some great things...but I think you'll find its £500. If you can get half the car done for that then you should bite their hand off. Mike - MPx

Neighbour just used them (they have Porsches and LR) but not used personally yet although I may do so for my other car.

If you are not in a rush then there is a guy called Mark Banstead based at Murcot turn near Broadway.

Please think long and hard as to what you will accept long term... Chips away use things like cellulose paint so they can polish it out half way through a panel... If you've seen any 1970's paint repaires lately? They usually go flat within months and can significantly reduce the value of a car longterm sir...

Yes the PDC rings should either be clear or black rubber and certainly not painted… Be interesting to see if he just paints over them again this time… 👍 |

Hi, just by way of an update, £420 inc VAT all in to have the front bumper resprayed, the OS castle on the bonnet stone chip rash fixed and the driver's door lower 3/4 resprayed in Fuji White by Chips Away in Gloucester and I only had to wait a few days to get it booked in.
