Hello,

Can anyone recommend a spray painter in Sydney?

Looking for a doors-closed respray and if I do it myself it will be with rattle-cans so I figure I should get a professional.

I know what I'm in for, just looking for a lead on a Mini-friendly business.

Cheers,
Tom.

Approx cost of respray $10,000 in 2 pack, will be higher if repairs are required.

Nobody knows the amount of man hours needed A good job can be done at home with the right mates.

Thanks Ian,

Not really keen to trailer the car to/from Cessnock so hoping people might have leads on sydney based workshops.

Anyone else know a workshop they’d recommend?

Not sure the last time they did a Mini (might have been mine back in 1990) but some family friends run Emu Plains Smash Repairs. I know they do a good job, as they have done a few of my brother's race cars and some custom parts for his new Mustang, just not sure they will be in the game of what you are looking for. Worth a try.

cheers
michael

Andys Restos in Kurnell was good, but the overall work has dropped off a bit. Carwarra Smash Repairs at Tarren Point have been solid for my families cars.
