Offering small paint jobs in Nottingham


Recommended Posts

Someone let me know if you're not happy letting me post this :p not sure if you're going to see it as a business or trading or anything like that. Will happily let you remove it if not happy :).

I'm currently out of work at the moment and doing a bit of this and a bit of that to tide me over whilst I concentrate on video work to try and build enough work to do it as a living. It's a slow process so I'm a general handy man at the moment as well as a mechanic lol, but one of the main things I can offer is paintwork! I've been doing bits and bobs for years and mainly progressed as a painter over the past year or so when I welded in new arches on my Civic and then painted the whole car.

I'm not a professional, I'm not mobile, I'm not as fast as a shop, most of my stuff will be painted outside under a gazebo so bear in mind errors might happen and it may take me a little longer to correct them!

I'm confident to do most stuff but single panels would be preferred and some stuff I won't touch if I'm not confident I'll do a good job or simply due to my lack of equipment. Happy to do filler and fibreglass work... Hate wheel refurbs :p but consider all. Anything to do with bodywork give me a shout and I'll see if there's anything I can do.

Based in Nottingham.

Again let me know if Admins/mods aren't happy and you can delete the post!

Cheers.

Adam.

True matey :)! I just hate prepping them lol. Most alloys are flaking and corroding and you can't spray over that to build it up and flatten. Could really do with a sand blaster and a cabinet big enough for wheels :p. Might make one at some point

I've done loads of other work too but this is just stuff I've got on my computer recently. Will consider all work but smaller stuff preferred. Now have a decent gazebo to keep flys and most dust away for better finishes and less work/quicker turn around too.
