Hi All,
Big apologies, I know this is my 3rd post today, but I've not had my girl a week yet, and I've already got a 'to do' list a mile long!
The rear cross member has already been replaced, but the rest of the chassis needs protecting - no gaping holes yet, but one small section of the main runner is showing signs of wanting to delaminate - around a drain hole. Before it sets in big-time, I want to get her shot blasted and waxoyled by someone. The bottoms of the doors are pretty shagged, so not fussed about protecting them, will just get some better ones off fleabay hopefully.
having searched and searched and searched, I found a company near me called JE Engineering. They're cheap - £180 + vat, BUT they say it's only a steam clean and then a surface coat - they dont fill cavities - pretty useless in my case I think.
Can anyone recommend a place in either the Leicester, or Coventry, area to have this done? Obviously I dont want to pay a fortune, but it does need a proper job this first time.....
after this first one, I'm sure me n the neighbour can give it fresh coats every couple of years. Shot blasting is not really something I can do at home though
Thanks
FS
