Car Roof Respray

[LiL_JeT]

Hey guys, Johnny here.

sorry i know this has probly beenposted so many times, dnt really know how to navigate this site cos im harldly on it.

is there anyone out there in the canberra area that can do good resprays? i just moved from Adelaide to Canberra and dnt know the area or shops, i own a 33 and my roof is badly sun damaged, and base paint is screwed and rust is slowlly setting in, im after a price and not a price like stupid shops quote for 10k :S im only after the roof done for the time being.. car is burgandy or wine red. just looking for a second hand job that is still good resonable price. and not crappy that will last a little bit till i can make enough money to get it done professionally.

i can help sand it back and prep and even buy the materials needed like the paint, i just dnt have my own equipment or i would do it myself. just really need the roof done for a temp job but still good to look at :\

or any info on where i can go for good prices and work is appreciated.

mate go speak with Naz at KMF customs on Gilmore Rd (next to ESP racing). He will give you a high quality job and his pricing is very reasonable!

As above. From what I've heard, KMF have done awesome jobs for others. Eventually, I'll be getting a full respray done there (though at this stage FARK THAT lol, car needs moar gofast and handling bits)

Backyardies for the win!!!!!

However, I have only heard good things about Naz and KMF.

If you are just looking for something to stop it rusting and look okay (better than what it does now) and then save up for a full respray. DIY!

Rub it back and make sure it is super clean (no finger marks) give it a quick prime and then use a couple of Rattle cans of base colour. If you a feeling superkeen then you can also put a few coats of clear-coat ontop too. Don't use cheap arse supercheap import cans go to a proper paint store. If you prep it properly it will last and you can get a pretty decent finish.

Otherwise I have heard nothing but good things from KMF.

hey mate i can do it, i sent an email from my hot mail account to you earlier. otherwise any panel shop will be able to do it,

I know Alldents in hoskins street mitchel are pretty good..

if you sand off all the old paint down to the metal and give the car to them like that, that will help a lot in doing a good and you know it will be done properly.

they wont be painting over sun damaged old cracking/crows feet paint and the next painter wont have to bare metal it and will hopefully be a good enough base to flow coat for when you want a mint paint finish next time
