What's under the paint is what makes all the difference, the paint won't hide much.

Yeah... I like those colours. Had mine done a couple of years ago and never asked the guy what the red was. I know the beige I had was Samos beige.. do you know a name/code for the red??

eh stef wish we were comin with you hope you have a good trip mate make sure you bring some of them rays back with you

OK rob heres what I got...Windows out 'cept wind screen (my request) de badged, all exteriors removed where requested

inside (though I said no to it,) outside, all rust was rubbed out and area's with dents/out of shape filled and reshaped , suspension, wheelarches,plastics,doorhandles,bumpers,
two coats primer,two pack high gloss...oven baked

you can remove stuff yourself..and refit..I did with the windows (scratches)
As for self prep, I feel it would still be prepped by them!

I also had two or three minor redo's as my design was crap in places..no charge

now...they have told me the more they do these vans the more that is identified as problem areas, just speak to them, they really do know this buisness, they can treat and stop rust but that requires a two sided attack..more time ..and probably more money

As regards to time well I guess they're not ideal if you use it as a daily.
They have contract work and it comes first
