where can i get small stone chip repairs done? i dont want to just use touch up paint, would like it done spot on. quite a while ago there was someone on this site starting up a business doing just this, door to door. is this service still on the go?

When some b'stard keyed the drivers door of my car I called a guy in Bedford called Darren Tremble he runs a company called Trim 'n Paint. He came highly recomended from some guys at work, so I thought I'd go with their recomendation. The door was very badly scratched and the keyed paint continued onto the panel behind the drivers door. He did the job in a day and a half and you'd never know that the damage had been there, perfect job, perfect colour match. Cost me £250 mind, but the damage was bad.


Can't remember his number but he's probably in the book.

There is a similar franchise company called 'chipsaway' not sure of the URL but its a variation of .co.uk/com.

They specialise in this type of repair, primarily on cars. Might be worth a try, however, one mans perfect is another mans disappointment, recommedations as above are worth their weight in gold.

Good luck chap

thanks Jools and crash, the chips are just that very small chips, just me being picky, but would like to see them gone. one on the tank and two on the side fairings. (carbon fairings) ill give them a call.
