One of the biggest transformations you can make to a car is with a full respray. We see many different paint jobs but many leave a lot to be desired. They may be fine from a distance but up close you can clearly see overspray. You can see the results of a professional respray above with nice coverage and no oversrpay Continue reading Respraying a car without overspray marks

A colour you will never see on mannufacturers pricelists is chrome. It is a very highly specialised finish and requires a lot of time and skill to apply properly. First of all a dull base coat is added. Continue reading Chrome car paint

Flip paint is quite expensive but really effective. On this Mazda MX5 the flip paint works well because of the body contours which accentuate the flip effect. On cars with flatter panels each panel would appear a different colour and you lose the effect.
Choose your paint colours carefully as they will look quite different when overlayed on each other. A good contrast effect usually works best but if you chose black and white you would just end up with a horrible dull grey effect.
The paint is a special type of paint with a semi clear top coat that has a polarising effect allowing the base colour to shine through.

This Scooby has a really original colour scheme with internal plastics also painted to blend into the black and orange look. It’s not all about looks this car can really hold its own on the track with a remap and larger turbo conversion.
If you look at the exhaust you will notice a cable which powers a spark plug enabling the car to shoot flames from the exhaust when it is tuned to run rich. This ensures that you will not be tail gated.
