I'm currently sat at Paintshield in Grantham with a cup of tea, access to t'internet, TV, games, toys magazines and food
I visited about a month ago and was made very very welcome. Ann washed the car and her and Tom inspected the paintwork before what was going to be a full frontal OOOOH Matron!
To my utter horror they said that they were loathe to attempt the treatment as the bonnet had been resprayed to such a sh1te quality that if and when the film had to be removed it would take the paint off with it. They could have just gone ahead and done it and run away with the dosh and I would have been none the wiser. But they didn't.
Tom, like myself, is ex-Forces and you should be able to trust an old soldier. The fact that they were willing to lose the business and waste 5 hours to keep me happy showed me that they are genuine people who actually care about giving quality service.
To cut a long story short , I sped back to Scarborough and booked my car in for a respray that very day. £170 + VAT sounded too good to be true and it was. They made it look worse than it was before!! So I pointed this out to the manager who assured me they'd do it again to my satisfaction. Second effort was much better but to the critical eye it still wasn't perfect, various bleed through's and the odd tiny pit. So I told them I was going to go elsewhere and they can sing for the £170 + VAT.
So, having had to postpone Paintshield twice, here I am, the bonnet has been done and now only another hour and a half to wait for the rest to be completed.
I have just found out, Tom and Ann have actually come in to work during their Christmas break especially (thought it was odd that there was only me here).
I cannot thank them enough for their professionalism, dedication to quality and just being nice people.
Anyone worried about paintwork and protection? Give 'em a call!!!
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED
PS. Anyone needing a respray in Scarborough, PM me and I can advise you who not to go to.
Regards and a Happy New Year to all
Nick.
