I've just bought a new carbon frame. It has no paint and no decals and I'm thinking of having it painted.

I did a DIY spray job of my old alloy frame which I was pleased with but the durability of the finish wasn't up to much.

I'd like to get someone to replicate the design but do a more professional job of the clear coat make it more durable.

I'm based in At Andrews and wondered if anyone knew of anyone in the area that does the sort of thing that you might get at Fat Creations, Colourburn Studio etc.?

Thanks, they look like they do some really nice stuff. At quite a cost though.

It’s a very skilful and labour intensive job to prep and paint a frame properly. Don’t expect it to be cheap if you want it to be good.

Yeah, Fat Creations aren't exactly cheap either...

Thanks for all the recommendations. Will have a little look to see what's possible.

Not looking to do it on the cheap. It's going to be a present to myself for my 40th.
