Acrylic Painters
Hey guys,
the car has recently had a respray. most of you know it was done by zappy when he owned the car and did a great job but the front of the car has gotten to have alot of stone chips. ive tryed touching it up with touch up paint but it also has started to peel and come off at some parts of the front bar so im just going to have to get it resprayed. anyone know of anywhere that sprays with acrylic paint?everywhere ive gone has told me that 2pac is the only way to go these days but i dont want to fork out over a grand just for a bit of work. ive thought about doing it myself but i really dont have much knowledge/experience in painting cheers |

most places will spray with whatever paint you ask them. just say to paint match with the rest of the car
2pac is much better (scratch resistance, better finish) but costs a fair bit more.
