Good panel beater/spraypainter in perth?

Post by sucka »

I will soon be painting my staz and will be looking for the services of a good panel beater/ spraypainter.
Do any perth people have first hand experience with panel shops in the perth area that they can recommend for doing quality work? As I have only dealt with one shop here and wasn't happy with the end finish of the job at all.

My wife's car got repaired (rear quarter accident) at B A Wilson Car Craft Panel & Paint, in Joondalup. They did an excellent job, and their shop floor/facilities look pretty spiffy. I can't comment on any total re-sprays, though.

Details are:
B.A. Wilson Car Craft Panel & Paint
33 Winton Rd Joondalup WA 6027
ph: (08) 9301 1440

Which was the one you weren't happy with?
Starion nutter since 1988...
1983 JA, 1984 JA, 1985 JB (all rego'd, all running :D )

I had a few panels repaired and resprayed on my falcon ute by meltham motors in bayswater. The job was OK but there were a few things I thought could have been alot better. spray job was a little orange peely in places, panel repairs werent dead straight and they F@@$%# my rear view mirror sealing rubber and door trim.
Just little things but when your paying good money you expect perfection.
But maybe my standards are just too high.... :x

F.Y.I. the paint job came out really well.
I figured out the meaning of life, and since then every day just gets worse.

Warranty void if stupid.
