So you want a good paint job but aren't prepared to pay good money for it? Hmmm.

I thought you did your last fix yourself as you were learning how to do it at college or something anyway?

So you want some one now to actually do the repair and paint it and you don't want to pay £300? Your not asking for much are you?

Do you even have the equipment there so a good enough compressor and a clean area with good extraction?

No there isn't.

You get what you pay for? Course it's right.

Buy a £1 powertool from Poundland - it will break if you breathe on it.

Pay £101 - you're alright.
