Any paint sprayers in Essex?

I need to get my middy painted and wonder where I can start looking for a good but locost job in Essex.





Cheers,
Raz

No such thing as a good, cheap, paint job. The 2 just don't go together.
You could do it yourself??................





I no longer run Furore Products or Furore Cars Ltd, but would still highly recommend them for Acewell dashes, projector headlights, dominator headlights, indicators, mirrors etc, best prices in the UK! Take a look at http://www.furoreproducts.co.uk/ or find more parts on Ebay, user names furoreltd & furoreproducts, discounts available for LCB users.
Don't forget Stainless Steel Braided brake hoses, made to your exact requirements in any of around 16 colours. http://shop.ebay.co.uk/furoreproducts/m.html?_dmd=1&_ipg=50&_sop=12&_rdc=1

If I had a workshop big enough I would love to have a go myself but I only have a single garage without extraction or compressor. I want to use a 2 pack paint which is a big no-no without the proper gear.

I am however willing to give as much help as needed - I just need the guidance and tools (and space) to do the job

Chilli - I called in to se Will and it doesn't look as though he will be able to fit me in before November. His yard was so packed I couldn't even find a space to park!
His price seems a bit pricey but at least he was flexible about payment & vat

Thanks for the offer of your garage but I think I would struggle to do the job myself, hence my search for a painter.

Steve - thanks for the tip. I will give them a ring.
