Hi guys
At some point during a restoration project or rebuild, you're almost certainly going to come across some parts or components that simply look too far gone, are going to cost a fortune to replace IF you can still get one, or will simply let car down if refitted in it current poor condition.
Well, you'd likely be amazed at what rusty and rotten parts can look like again with the right process.
With chemical stripping, shotblasting, and powder coating and painting available, those old crusty parts can soon look brilliant again.
If there are some repairs needed prior to refinishing, such as welding or strengthening, this can also be done by myself.
heres a few 33 and sud suspension parts of my own that were pretty bad, and in dire need of tlc if they were ever going to go back on a car of mine!
they look brand new now, but are in fact better than new!
Powder Coating is enormously more protective and durable than any wet paint, even the beloved hammerite!
These items, although 20 and 30 years old already, will now last far longer than even Alfa ever imagined, let alone the doubting british public!
All enquiries either by private message or email me directly at petrolheadshrew@gmail.com
thanks for looking

Re: Car Part Refurbishment
Nice setup you've got there mate
I wish we had such facilities over here.
Sand blasting is available here, but powder coat , no.
Instead I use Epoxy Primer before painting effected and cleaned parts.
That been said, epoxy primer doesnt come cheap
If given the choice, I would go for powder coating every time

That could be harder than it sounds.
Shipping alone would take a month to get to you, and another month to have it back
