Paint (375ml Pressure Pak)

[Cyric]

Hey guys,

There is a place in lilydale that has a big phat book of cars and their paint colors, and for $12 you can get them to mix up a 375ml pressure pak of your car color.....

Only problem is I ain't live in lilydale no more and I can't be a$$ed driving there from clayton, anybody know of somewhere else that offers this service?

Going to paint the little series 1 clear [skyline] panel from the boot....

thanx

LOL to drive to lilydale from clayton takes about 30 mins max!!

what r u?? lazy??

[Cyric]

yes, yes i am

actually just rang holden in in lilydale and they stopped doing it 4 months ago due to new ohs regulations... so i guess im gunna have to get a big fat can and a compressor now

although im sure there is somebody out there who doesnt have the same ohs regs as holden so that can still help me

Failing that-do you think that the car touch-up spray paks that are readily avaliable from autobarn or whatever would carry the correct colours?

(i'm, doin my boot lip thing too, cyrics is white, mine is the silver from teh avatar?)

dj_lethal went to a place out Tullamarine way to get his stuff mixed up.

I need some stuff too, so i'll be there soon..

Dont know if its too late but EastCoast Auto Spares in Bentleigh area have this service [mix up a spray pak for you]. I think its about $15 but dont quote me on the price.

Its definately closer than lilydale. Its on North road, near corner of east boundary rd.

just rang eastcoast auto spares they charge $43.50... almost double the dandnenong one... wonder what the difference is

[NismoR34]

sh!t thats expensive...sorry my bad.

I asked them about it recently but didnt get one and couldnt remember the price.

[Guest RedLineGTR]

depends what colour the car is sometimes u can match it..but i guess if u really want it then u have to pay the price.

How does this stuff work? Do you spray it on out of a can just like a bought one? What are the results like?

Is it easy or difficult to blend it reasonably well with the existing paintwork?

I need to touch up my sideskirts..

My dad used one in Dandenong and for $25 they gave him 400ml of paint to match the car and this spray pak that is just a small aerosol can that screws onto a bottle. Just fill the bottle with some of the paint and spray it on.

sounds cool... i live round the corner from it so might check it out

Sounds like the same stuff dj_l3thal sprayed his dash with.. That came up really well.

I am just worried about the blending of it.. if its too difficult i will go dodgy and use a paintbrush and bottle of mixed paint/
