Light Aircraft Paint Shop required

Hi All,

Sadly I have been let down by a paint shop who have had to delay doing some corrosion work on my Archer. No bad feelings to them as they have had complications this year but it would appear that I am going to have to start again in searching for someone to do the work.

As I only know of facilities at Sleap, Bournemouth, Turweston and Sturgate (all of whom are naturally in demand) can anyone recommend any other outlets or companies. Also has anyone ever tried the bigger companies that normally do airliners for GA work?

Thanks as always for any help.

BB

They did our PA28 about 10 years ago and it's stood the test of time living outdoors.

We used Fly Moore (http://www.flymoore.co.uk) at Dunkeswell in 2014 for our PA28. Very impressed by the quality of work and attention to detail

I have seen a few that have been done by RGV at Staverton and they have looked very nice.

There was a very good outfit at Lydd too, but I think that must have gone now.

I had my paint done by a guy at RGV; he's exceptionally good and a perfectionist! Highly recommended.
