hey everyone..
well, as soon as exams are over and done with i'm gona be doing some major stuff to the little beast. a respray is on the list, (along with a 20v conversion, nos <--(nah, seriously) and a few other bits and pieces..)
which brings me to my question-i've been told that there are places where you can hire out a spray booth along with a gun and a compressor and respray your own car. does anyone know of any good places such as this?? alternatively--would anyone be willing to hire out their garage/compressor for a couple of days if the price is right?
any advice would be very much appreciated  .
cheers guys

haha
not worth it
theres a car along burwood road that does a $695 respray
neva can catch his number.
Otherwise u can get a cheap garage from supercheap (Those erect yourself plastic ones.
Wait for better weather.
Chuck some heaters in.
And go nuts.
By all means if u find a good spray/booth let me know i wanna throw some paint on my carbon crayon bonnet.

On weekdays i believe the multi colored panel van is along burwood rd/toorak road on teh south side of the road.
It says resprays from 695.
Anyone that passes by GET THAT NUMBER!
I've been wanting to call it for about 6 months now. Lolz.

Europaint Australia Unit 1/ 15 Scoresby Rd Bayswater ph: (03) 9738 0588
Thats the mob with the multicolored sigma wagon/van thing.
The car originally said $500 resprays, its gone up a fair bit recently. Expect to pay more than $695 with preparation etc. though, i'm sure theres hidden costs.

I got quoted there, roll in roll out with all remove and refit done by me was ~$1200. Car was straight, but car-park dinged about a bit. No rust.
$599 or whatever is just to mask and spray what you give them, no prep required, paint included. ie. literally a 'respray', not all the prep work then spray.
There's a Sigma sedan that parks on Canterbury Road in Bayswater (Corner of Bayswater Road, 1km up from the workshop) and an old wagon that I see angle-parked on Toorak Road near Glen Iris/Tooronga/Monash Freeway. Thought it was an #E70 Corolla wagon, maybe a Sigma though.

Roman, I have THOUGHT about touching up the grey thing a bit - maybe if you can chip in a bit towards hiring a heater for a few days, we can use our garage? You're planning on painting it yourself, yah?

Don't buy a gun from Supercheap. My Star S770 (2.0mm suction feed) gun cost me only $136 (inc. GST) from Total Tools last week.
