Cleaning Up Bodywork.

Discussion in 'Detailing and cleaning' started by comfysofa, Jan 27, 2019.

  1. Not sure where to put this....my Hyper has got a custom paint job. Its now getting on for 8 years or so old and i think, could do with tiding up....theres a few chips out of the laquer, a few wear marks. The lugs on the front sidepanels have seen better days - theyre there but repaired (again ok, but not sure if they can be strengthened.)

    Anyone ever done this (found a company, sent all the bodywork off for a tidy up) or does that not exist...does it all have to be redone...and, if it did, i was thinking of sourcing old bodywork and getting that sprayed up....

    Thoughts ladies and gents??
     
  2. I imagine the guys who repair stone chips on cars could take care of the paint problems?

  5. Nottingham race-paints did this type of repair on a workmates bike about 2 or 3 years ago, an SP1 Honda I think it was - worth sending them a few pictures maybe. Do you know who did the original job? If so try them as they will probably have the colour codes used.

  7. Race paint UK and Dream machine are pretty close to me. I used Race paint recently to repair and paint my RRV bodywork before having it wrapped at The image works
