I've tried called many times since early december but figured they closed for chrissy. I've tried again but nothing, anyone know when they go back? Also just while i'm here, anyone had experience with them? Like how you have to take the car to them? What the process is? just for interest i'll guess i'll find out after i get through to them.

Ps. I know the experience question has been asked before just thought i'd through it in so please dnt be a forum nerd and have a sad because you thought i didn't 'search'. haha

cheers all.

hey dude, I've done 2 years in tafe first pre app in autobody refinishing then another year as mature age trade certificate this was in 1998. If its anything like what it was then I'd have to say exactly what are you looking for do want a show finish, forget it then, if want all panels that have been removed to sit right again then forget it, if you want your prep work done well forget it,

However if your looking for just an average job yeah it's ok, will do, its not that cheap too, back then it cost a full repray around $1300-$1800. so if your not fussed too much yeah its ok if you want heads turning nah, if you go ahead with it remove all valueables from the car including cds, coins etc.

Another thing would be time, It will take longer to spary aswell for inexperience is a problem. Best bet will be to ask when the 3rd year apprentices are comming there not too bad and will do a half decent job

Yeah man i just want the thing painted i'm not fussed about the 'show car' job, and i'm willing to do a bit of prep but would i be like gap filling and everything too? i thought they did it as apart of their 2 week course of a full respray on a car??
