Spectraflare repair / respray

[a1butch]

Can anybody suggest a suitable body shop near East Anglia that has experience with Spectraflare? I could travel anywhere realistically if reputable garages are outside my comfort zone!
The offending areas are rear light cluster paint peel and front end stone chips so appreciate it may not be a simple touch up job.

Mulgari Automotive, their painter is very experienced with spectraflare/pearlecent paint. One of few TVR approved painters around I believe. http://www.mulgari.com/contact-us based in Berkshire.

I'd suggest you speak to Stephen Kerridge or his workshop manager and see who they recommend?

Great, phoned them both. Spectraflare @ £700 a litre though, wtf? :-) Just a small ding or scratch anywhere and you're looking at repainting the whole panel?!
I couldn't view the link though as I'm not a member - could I poach the info without joining?

It's less than the price of a tank of fuel to join.

And you get the excellent Sprint magazine every month, and feel like you belong when you turn up to events.

I agree with Groucho Marx, "I wouldn't want to be a member of any club that would have me as a member".........but I joined (not realising I could have day membership for a fiver for the TVRCC track day) and have never regretted it - just renewed, which is even cheaper (by direct debit) than initially joining

Membership accepted. I've even bought myself a TVRCC contour ball pen.
