Hi.

Just wondering if anyone can suggest a good place to get a re-spray in the Manchester / Leeds area.

Cheers

Bob Jackson are good, but take ages..
Took them 7 weeks to do my CX Frame. The finish ain't that reat, its only just over a year old, and its chipping like mad..

I'm going down the powdercoat route next time- Tripple S in Bingley(?) are getting my trade..

Oh, and they are about £45 cheaper..

lasts longer and wears less

Argos in Bristol are perhaps the most well known and best respected. Large array of colours although not all of them are as hard wearing as others. Yes they are pricey, but they are very good indeed.

Second vote for Argos. They did great job on my steel Kona.

Be warned tho' stove enamel is never going to be as hard wearing as Powdercoat.

Another vote for Argos, they've done 2 excellent resprays for me in fairly quick turnaround (one was 2 weeks, the other needed some repair work as well and took about 5 weeks).

Argos - I sent my Evil Sov' and it came back FAR better than when new. Not cheap but brilliant.
