Just gone in the garage and a full bottle of anti freeze had fallen on to the bonet of the mint escort cosworth i am so pissed off dont know how it happend.So the bonet will have to be painted next year it had a spray job around 6 years ago how do they get the perfect match dont want to spray the whole car ,thats how fussy i am.

 

is it only the bonnet?
what colour?
shouldnt be to hard to blend in

 

oh no hope ya get it sorted and a good colour match!

Bad luck mate

Steve

 

shit news should be an easy fix

 

what colour is it mate?

 

Imperial blue but it has had a respray 5 or 6 years ago.

 

a good painter should be able to blend the colour no probs mate

 

Thats what i was hoping how do they do it ,

 

Essentially its a deliberate act of overspraying, so they carry the new colour onto the old paint either side.

 

well all cars iv seen the bonnet colour doesnt match a 100%
but that colour is easy to blend in

 

Gutted for you mate.I went in my dads garage the other week where my car is and i found a hammer on top of the car cover on the boot lid.

 

They should flick over the wings to blend it at the very least. A good painter will get it right and you won't tell

 

bad luck matey good luck getting it sorted shudnt be to hard to get sorted

 

take the filler cap or wing mirror off and get a colour match at your local painters

 

time for a carbon bonnet ?


cheers james

 

not good, but should be fine with a good painter.

 

Bad luck

 

when it painted and blended in with the wings you should be able tell if its done right so good luck mate

 

it depends, if its central on bonnet a painter will be able to loos the basecoat feathering in the bonnet without going to edges and then laquer whole bonnet, if thats the case it will just be a bonnet repaint

 

gutted

 

thanks every one.PS im still so pissed off.
