Jeza Posted June 28, 2006 Report Share Posted June 28, 2006 (edited) Hi mate, that sounds ok but i would do more like primer then 4 - 6 layers of paint and then the lacquer..Jeza Edited June 28, 2006 by Jeza Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
N Roach Posted June 28, 2006 Author Report Share Posted June 28, 2006 would that chip easy or would that be like needing a chisel to chip the paint lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jeza Posted June 28, 2006 Report Share Posted June 28, 2006 i think it would be ok, just make sure you sand it properly and wash all the dirt and dust of maybe using white spirits and the paint should stay intact pretty well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomm Posted June 28, 2006 Report Share Posted June 28, 2006 does anyone know how much it costs about to spray a mod frame ... its bair metal at the moment so will need primer paint and laquacheersI think Halfords usually do a 3 for 2 deal on spray paints - They're usually £4.99 each. So you can get 1 primer, 1 colour and 1 laquer for a tenner. You *might* need another can of colour though (If you want to get it perfect), so that would be an extra £5. So £15 max.

HargrovesToby Posted June 29, 2006 Report Share Posted June 29, 2006 if you were to have someone professionally spray your frame for you, then look at about the 80 mark. this is including full preparation. alternativly, find a professional car sprayer, and wait for the next batch of powerdercoating, and if there is any pain left over, ask them to do your frame, this works as long as you dont really mind to much what colour.toby Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomm Posted June 29, 2006 Report Share Posted June 29, 2006 I think Iolo will do a frame in any colour you like for £40, decent finish powdercoat too I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
