Mick Allen and Son Resprays at Turweston are excellent! They've done all 4 of my aircraft which look great!

i run a car respray bodyshop so when our group 172 went in for a bare metal respray in two pack paint at a cost of £2900 i bit my tongue and abided by the groups decision. Eventually we were charged nearer £5000 and i was not a happy bunny.An aircraft such as a 150 in my humble opinion should be £800 materials and around £1500 or two weeks labour.Sums higher than this suggest as always mention aircraft and costs rise.Respray a top quality car in the latest paint is still a lot less than simple two pack on an ancient aircraft.Lifes a bitch.
