Can anyone recommend a good paint sprayers for a tank job in and around the S Yorkshire area? I've had a price estimate from Dream Machine which is OK but they seem to have had some negative reviews recently. I tried to contact Race Paint UK by phone, they don't answer and they haven't responded to an email so they're out. I don't mind travelling to a degree but I don't want to use postage or couriers for obvious reasons.
https://www.wobbzart.co.uk/contact Wobbz is in Bromsgrove, not sure if that's close enough for you but he does good work. He did Mrs Visors Blade respray and some v good plastic welding on two of the panels at a good rate. Highly recommended.
Again not sure if it's close enough for you but I had a superb result from Ian Potter - www.tankcareproducts.co.uk. He is based just north of Norwich but highly recommended
Thanks for the replies/recomendations. Most of these custom sprayers seem to be very busy at the moment! I've found a couple of places much closer but they are booked up until well into the New Year with a turnaround time of 2-4 weeks. One place wanted the tank for 12 weeks which seems a long time for such a relatively simple colour scheme! I'm in no rush to get it done but want the bike off the road for as short a time as possible. If it wasn't for the Triumph logo I'd probably have a go myself. I still have some matt khaki paint I had mixed up to spray the mudguard on the Street Scrambler which came out great so I could get some more mixed easily. I've painted car and bike bodywork before with excellent results, plus the tank will be matt finish which is a little easier to achieve than a deep gloss. We shall see.
Decided to have a go myself and sprayed it up with a couple off rattle cans this afternoon with a printed vinyl logo! Quite pleased with the result!
