Refinishing Part 1

Post by ipaulog »

I need some recommendations for someone to do some fairly minor paint and body work to my '83 Devon camper.

Mainly seams and refinishing the kerbside lower half after a 'keying' incident.

Is there anything worth doing myself to pre-prepare the panel seams?

I am in Birmingham but will travel a fair distance on the basis of a good tip.

Thanks,

Paul.

Thanks for the recommendation.

Sorry about the delay - I wasn't sent any email notification so didn't know the post had been replied to till now.

Cheers, Paul.

Just got a notification to this one... but nothing for the 8 replies to the last two threads I started.

I haven't changed any settings but I'll take a look.

Thanks, Paul.
