theres a number of things that could cause it mate, there all a ball ache, and he's definitely bull shitting. his stirring stick could have been dirty, or his gun could have been dirty, or he could have used different primers, theres loadsa issues like that.
we'v had this before now, the obvious solution is too have it painted down both sides, but then will it match to the bonnet, roof, bumpers etc. if you go and request both sides be painted in a different body shop, explain the reason. explain the door is wrong and ask them to blend through the rear quarter panels, and front wing. but make sure you ask them to do it clear over base. because blending with 2k high solid, results in tide lines at a later date.
can i ask how much you paid to have the car blown over?

was the car stripped down like it is now? what kinda condition was the shell in?
id go back to him. and id tell him you want it putting right, or you want a partial refund. either way he wants sorting out. then id bring it to N Jones Autobodies in Manchester and we'd put it right for you

thing is i dont wont him haveing the car back he had it for over a fuking year it done my head in the end i told him i wont her back i was even gonna take it away unfinished thats how long he had it

it depends who you go to and where you go mate. he has absolutely no excuse for it looking like it does. other than the colour change is everything else ok? finish wise?
if you get into your head 300 quid to put it right you shouldnt be far wrong in all honesty mate, but we are one of the cheapest body shops around.
i hate it when somebody does something entirely right (you). and somebody does a half ass job and still has the cheek to charge top money. its ridiculous. i hope you get it sorted mate.

#19
yeah a painters eye is like a concourse eye. anal to f**k haha. i cant believe he had it for a year, charged that money, and its still not right. go back and kick up a fuss. he sounds like a bit of a C**T to be honest. My boss refuses to have cars in the garage for more than two weeks. and we can turn a repaint around in two days. your gonna think im biased in saying this. but our work is second to none. i wouldnt trust any other painter.

with respect, if hes had the car a year then 7 more days wont matter will it?!
Get the car back to him and tell him how it is, if he argues just go see a solicitor, let them sort it.

Car looks lovely to start off with,albeit minus the doors.
Different paint suppliers mix differently,wrongly,but it certainly happens,I`ve been the victim of this many a time,in fact in the end I changed my suppliers,good news for you,bad news is you`ll have to go into Cardiff to get it,which is never a good thing (just fucking with you!!).
Give autopaints a bell,their spot on on the colourmixes,we ended up doing edge to edge stuff on newer cars without blending as their mixes were so good,their not the cheapest,but they are the best.
If he paints that back in the proper shade of Frozen white you`ll never notice any shading issues,it won`t need blending.
Of course,I can`t see the pictures perfectly but it looks a smashing job to be honest and Ł1200 is about right.
And to whover said you can do a full respray in two days,I`d love to see that on anything other than a few month old car,it takes a day to mask the fucker up properly!!!

so what u saying vanunt i can get the paint coluer matched and that means he only needs to do the 2 doors and bonnet not sweep through the wings and quarters ?
#29
Fook me that's bad mate. No way I'd stand for that. WTF is up with some people? How could you send it out like that!
Probably sprayed the car a year ago and the doors recently, reckon he lost his glasses in between and picked up the 'austin beige' instead of frozen white.

DECODING JIBBA JABBA!!
Is it frozen white or diamond? i autho repairs to hundreds of frozen white fords every week and i only ever autho painting edge to edge with no blends at all and to this day i have only ever had 1 problem and that turned out to be a paint supplier issue not due to my repairer.
he's taking total bollox's, demand the entire car is blown over again and tell him he has the car for 2 weeks max!!!
name and shame!!!

what i would do is paint it in base and clearcoat, base the door up and blow it into the quarter and wing then laquer the whole side, its the only way to ensure a match without risking a new missmatch by the bootlid or tailgate
