James B Posted March 17, 2010 Posted March 17, 2010 I've loved this colour since I first saw it on a GTI pug over 10 years ago. Just been quoted £2k for a full respray in it too. What you guys think? http://www.tcpglobal.com/images/rsp2702.jpg Quote
bounty78 Posted March 17, 2010 Posted March 17, 2010 That colour would go quite well with Nurrish's wheels Quote

Vik54 Posted March 17, 2010 Posted March 17, 2010 is it a candy? +1 - looks like the apple red doesn't it ? Quote
rtbiscuit Posted March 17, 2010 Posted March 17, 2010 looks like house of colour candy apple red, or a copy of Quote
M13KYF Posted March 17, 2010 Posted March 17, 2010 isnt any candy a full respray if its gets scratch or damaged Quote
sketch Posted March 17, 2010 Posted March 17, 2010 candys are very hard to match should you need something touched up or redone as candy it a laqure which you apply over a colour base like black or silver then built up the layers on candy laqure ontop usually between 8-12 coats, so touchups never look evry good, unless that it a differant type of paint or just a heavy metallic red?

Husky Posted March 17, 2010 Posted March 17, 2010 plus with that amount of spraying 2k seems cheap? Quote
Gaz Walker Posted March 17, 2010 Posted March 17, 2010 plus with that amount of spraying 2k seems cheap? Very much +1. A proper candy apple paintjob should cost 3-4k by someone who knows what they are doing! Quote
Stew Posted March 17, 2010 Posted March 17, 2010 Looks like Diablo red to me! My gaylander is a similar colour and I actually really like it. Quote
James B Posted March 17, 2010 Author Posted March 17, 2010 Pearl fire red is the colour as i remember Quote
Shaun1982 Posted March 17, 2010 Posted March 17, 2010 plus with that amount of spraying 2k seems cheap? Very much +1. A proper candy apple paintjob should cost 3-4k by someone who knows what they are doing! I had a 1 off Kandy done(engine bay too), along with a few minor dents & some welding done for £1300 & i supplied the paint at the cost of about £300 or so & it looked great, guess i got a bargain Quote
