Title: Monza 2 Diamond Cut refurb Northampton Area
Post by: T6 SUR on May 09, 2014, 01:41:04 pm

Any recommendations on who is good to use to do a Refurb of the Diamond Cut variety in the Northamptonshire Area?

Cheers

Sorry I'm not local, but have you considered powder coating?  Looks the same and lasts longer.

Death to white worm!

Even with a 2 colour powder coat,  it just doesn't look as good as the diamond cut finish especially in the sun or when the car is being driven (giving the CD effect)

A thinker lacquer will be more durable but it's inevitable after 12-24months  the white worn will return

I know it's not in Northampton but still local (ish) but Pristine in  Woburn sands have a good rep for this type of work.
