Chassis Sandblasting - where ??
Tris - 3/11/11 at 06:30 PM

Hi all,

Looking at getting my Fury chassis sand/media blasted and then etch primed. Does anyone know of a place where i can get this done for a reasonable price ? (just been quoted almost £1k from a local outfit !!!!)

Live near Milton Keynes so ideally looking for somewhere local, although able to go further a field.

Cheers

I have used these guys a few times, excellent service. A bit far may be.

No!

Mate of mine had a quote for an ascona shell last month, and as I recall there is only one dipper in the uk to do car bodies.

They quoted £2k then if it were to be plated, £4k.

They said it wanted dipping, then welding, then dipping again and coating, oh and if they damage it, tough tits. Their damage raste is 25% too.....................

Is Airblast at Gosfield too far?

These guys quoted me £75 per hour from memory.

Thanks for all the replies - will have a ring round tomorrow through these options and see which one works out best.
