Hi All.

Got another car done over this weekend.

Came out really well, but reminds me so much of Postman Pats Van.

this really lasts only 12 months?


No it can last a lot longer than 12 months.

Should easily hold up 2 - 3 years.

Just depends how well you look after it.

If you get a professional applicator to do the work like me, it will last a long time.

Some DIY jobs at home might not last as well.

There are a number of DIY kits you can buy now which include the gun and paint, filters etc which a lot of people are using and it does work well.

Is doing this purely for aesthetics?

Nope, we have a lot of people coming to use now to actually protect the standard paint on their vehicles.

So a lot of 4x4 guys wanting to protect their paint from scratches and that. In that case we can either add a colour or just do a clear coat on top of their original paint.

Same with motor bikes.

Clear coat to protect paint work.

So basically you drive around for a few years in a car that looks like a piece of crap so that when you sell it, the new owner gets a nice shiny car?

At the end of the day the customer is always right, what you may like someone else will hate.

This is what the customer wanted to its what we gave him and he loves it.

You dont have to go for a matte based colour you can go for a gloss / metalic / pearl / two-tone / camo

You can have it covered in graphics or have company logos printed on it.

A lot of places are now doing vehicle branding with Plasti Dip instead of vinyl.

You're using MyBB to market your company quite vigorously aren't you?
