    Count 1 more for Seattle. 110%, I was wondering when I could schedule time to make the drive down to ca, but if Jesse wants to come up here, well, let's make it worth his time!

    I'd like some help with body work as well. Have a nice gash on the side of my car. Makes me sad....

          this is my exact question, i need a couple of small dents re-worked but I'm willing to spend a more than 800, especially if I don't have to do any prep work.

            im down, it would basically work like this, i collect a pro rated(deducted from my labor cost) 100-150 deposit from 4-5 people or more just depends i fly out, see all the cars, make a game plan, fly out again in 2-3 weeks with a schedule and plan for each car, this will give people time to plan out the projects. and it gives me time to set a plan for my guys here at my shop. I could possibly bring my work force with me or at least one worker.

            i can do it all from bodywork to paint but i will require help with simple things, (trim removal, moldings, and such) not that i cant do it but thats time i can spend on the body/paint

            what i need you guys to do is find a place for me to work.

            there was one guy who mentioned that he had a spray booth ? that would be perfect but like i said i would need to make one trip for planning and one for actual work.

            i have done similar jobs in the past but it has been in state, for muscle cars and such.

            with proper planning its totally scooby doo-able

                  I do indeed. Its old, but its a booth. Let me make sure its still fully operational. I'd guess all it needs is some new light bulbs installed.

                  Anyone interested in a Bellingham based repaint PM me, I'll start putting things together.

                        Jesse

                        Got a question for ya. What can be done to a car where the clear coat is peeling? It is a red MK3 GTi and one side looks great but the other is not. Can the clear be "sanded down" and then re-clear?

                          @enrike well once the clear has lost adhesion to the base coat(color) there is not much that can be done to "re clear" however if the area is small enough, a simple blend job can be just enough to save the cars paint. the down side to this is that it is often a better idea (budget wise) to respray the car. send me some pics and i can give you more detailed advice.

                              I have a z3 m-roadster that needs some minor repairs, and the bumper and hood need to be matched to the rest of the car. If I send you some pics, could you give me a sense of the effort involved?
