As I am nearing the stage with my rebuild that I am ready to start the respray I dont quite know which route to take, the cost of getting it sprayed professionally is going to cost me between £2500 - £3000 and then some. If I was to do it myself, a compressor is going to cost about £500, all the spraying equipment about £300 and the paint probably another £300 so thats just over a grand. Last time I had a car sprayed it had to go back time and time again and was never right, I am pretty sure in my mind that no matter where I take it to, they are not going to take as much care and attention over it as I would. I am limited for space and it would be a tight squeeze spraying in my garage, I would have to plastic sheet it out to eliminate dust etc I couldnt bake the paint. I now most of the effort is in the prep, and I wouldnt mind that, and to some degree the paint can be improved afterwards by wet sanding etc if I bugger it up a bit. What do people think? save some cash and do it myself or spend more money and get it done by a pro and perhaps be disappointed. I also have the rotisserie to help with doing things like the roof etc Any help / advice would be greatly appreciated.
