Respray?

Has anyone had there Disco re-sprayed recently? thinking of having mine done. keeping it in it's original blue (NOT BRIGHT PINK LIKE THE MISSUS WANT'S) any ideas on what i should expect to pay? is it better to go to a reputable (expensive) garage? or find someone who know's a friend of a friend who does it (cheap)?

:doh:

I think you're on the wrong forum. Nobody here has ever attempted this, we're all too busy licking windows.

window licking is not recomended in winder! your tongue will freeze to the window!

Ah..you're one of those that licks from the outside...


Do a search...its been covered vastly here...I did my 90 for less than £20

the outside has the most flavour! less than £20? cheap paint and a roller?

i sit and watch washing machine go round in winter and window lick in summer

Homebase metal paint x 2 (reduced to £4 for 750ml) and a few rollers, brushes and white spirit...

so i'd need 3? disco is a bit bigger than a 90. plus i like to get creative. maybe even do the wheels?

Yes...i was tempted to paint my wheels oxford blue but then i realised i wasn't brain damaged...so didn't.


Its easy...remove/cover brightwork....lightly sand it..wipe it...paint it...paint it...


Please do a search...

was thinking black for the wheels and maybe the oxford blue on the body. with a sporty stripe on the sides, like the dukes of hazard car, so the wheels wouldn't look stupid!

No, the wheels would be the least of your problems...

ive been told £300, but thats just the outside, not the wings under the hood.
