    First, i can't believe i missed you again.

    I'm really shocked at how many blisters you have, That's is really bad, and i hope they'll bare metal all the parts that need it (roof and pillars) They can be from solvent "pop" if primer/paint hasn't dried fully too, not just just moisture.
    I do know that the car was never out side. So it never got wet.
    Gutted the job came out so badly again. I'm ashamed i sent you in there now.

    The sanding marks can come back though as primer stat to sink down, but as it was primed dried, sanded then re primed i really didn't think you'd have any probs this time. The other bits that look rough under the paint are from where it's not been flatted back enough.

    I'm shocked by both the above to be honest!

    I really hope this morning went well and it's all gonna be sorted.

    Pm me and let me know the score if you want.

    Is this where you have your paint work done Benn?


    Going by the pics that needs starting again from bare metal IMO

    Probably need a full strip down as well as your not going to want dust all over those nice flocked bits

    A absolutely shocking job for £3grand I'd be fcuking fuming

    Yes, where i used to work and get my car done. But i do all my own prep and absess over it.

    Any where there are bilsters needs to be bare metaled, but im sure the bodyshop would agree on. Prob is that is something that can come up over time.
    The sanding marks, they should have been seen before, if might not have been visable before.. Its hard to tell, but they do need fixing. But i believe its booked in for these probs to be sorted.

    Surely if every panel has issues they need to paint the whole lot again?

    True, is it every panel? I didn't think it was, hoping Criag sorted it out with the bodyshop.

    Yes, Unfortunately every panel has the sanding marks showing through and the blistering is spreading by the week. That's by biggest concern as two weeks ago it was only blistering on the roof.

    Lol, I did pop in your work but they said you where out on deliveries. I'm over again tomorrow if your there.

    No need to be assamed mate, you wernt to know this would happen.

    Kieth still believes part of the problem is down to the paint so I'm taking it over tomorrow to see the rep. He has assured me its going to get sorted and if it does then ill be happy. Just hope it doesn't take 3 months again, he seems to have a lot of work in at the moment so I am a big worried. I've

    I really don't want to miss another show season.

    Hopefully tomorrow we will agree on what is going to be done, I can't see any over options than to sand it all right back, its already got 3 layers of paint on it.

    Harsh mate, I know it's a pain but if it was me id strip the car again before it was repainted, as it's not the same when things are masked etc and all your hard work will get covered in dust etc

    Really? FFS. I can only say i'm sorry, i expected alot better than this from them.
    The guy that painted it (both times) has been stacked, maybe that's why.

    In my exspearance (sp?) if it's getting worse, i'd be thinking it was paint wise too. i've seen it on a few on older cars, main ones where they've been covered while they are putting them back together (i know you didn't do that)

    Yeah i'm on the road this week, so missed you again
    I know i wasn't to know. But i expected much better from them. That's why i recommended them.
    The paint rep will be able to say what the prob is, and as far as i know ( i checked most days to see how it was going) it was never out side wet or dry day. It was always inside.

    Hope i can see it tomoz and help it goes well.
