Dream Machine Closed Down

[Waynester]

Not sure if this has already been posted, but I was all ready to get my 1990 ZXR750 H2 repainted, & planned to use Dream Machine Paint as they’ve done good work for me in the past. But it looks like they have permanently closed?

A shame, as they’ve been around for donkeys years

If true, any recommendations for good bike painters?

The paint on my ZXR is fairly reasonable, but a full re spray will perfect the bike.

I couldn't comment on Dream Machine but as an alternative J&S Racepaint, Tregarth, North Wales are superb. Been around for ever and their work is right up there with the best. All depends on where you are though.

Cheers, probably a bit far, as I’m in Hertfordshire.

I’ll be stripping the bike down, but I don’t think I could trust sending via courier.

Ah yes, not exactly on the doorstep. I wouldn't trust a courier either, sods law something would go wrong. Good luck getting it done, the hunt will be worth it I am sure

Had a bike done at DM many years ago.

End of an era.

I’ve used both Mark Cordwell , in Derby and Chris Griffin in Leicester for all my recent paintwork requirements.

Google search brings up their details and photos of their work/reviews, both far better than DM, shame to see another iconic name go.

That looks stunning.

Ahh, maybe this is why I’m (easily) confused..

Josh Day aka 'Dayo Paint' in Swindon have a great reputation and also undertake resto type paintwork on older panels.

Also speak to Mike at TripleC in Wokingham, his work is superb, tell him Dibble sent you, he does all my paint, his last piece of work for me was every panel for the 996...

He is also a biker ...
