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.

Odd, when I googled earlier, I said it was now closed…

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