Paint Repair

Post by TDK »

Unfortunately on my last run out in the car for the year a few weeks ago the leading edge of the bonnet was hit by a large stone that chipped paint and possibly dented the metal - it's a nasty mark about the size of a 5p piece. So, can anyone recommend a good paint shop that can make a spot repair to the bonnet of my car with a perfect colour match to the Gemini Blue paint?

I'm based in Haslemere in Surrey, so somewhere within a reasonable distance would be ideal.

Thanks...Simon.

Talk to Jason at Unit 24 in Camberley on 01276 22907, he'd be perfect for you.
cheers, Mike.

At the very least you bonnet will need painting.

You can blend in the colour over the panel but you need to clear coat the whole panel for a "perfect" finish.

I would not recommend a spot repair/blow-in for this.
