Getting a red stripe

[BelperJim]

Hello peeps,

I want a red stripe painting on my gti grill a la

(not my picture stole it from a golf forum)

Just wondering where would be the best place in Derby to try.

Cheers

DG make Old Jamaica Ginger Beer too!

But on a serious note I have never done any painting before. The only place I know of in Derby that might do it is Chartwells anywhere else?

Why not just buy a roll of self adhesive red pinstripe first? Should be easy enough to apply and be durable enough to not require a painted one.

If he's never done any vinyling before he'll probably struggle to get a good finish on the corners using a pin stripe. You could take the grill to your local graphics place and get them to cut you a sticker to fit but it will probably not be all that cheap. As most of the cost is in the set up you could get 10 or 20 done and sell the others on Fleabay I guess?

Painting's not that hard there are plenty of step by step guides on the net. The basic method is: Sand, clean, prime, sand, clean, paint, sand, clean, clear coat (if required), sand, clean, polish. Preparation and taking your time are the important bits.

Yeah the corners are pretty much 90 degree turns so with lack of vinyl experience I think I will struggle I might give painting it myself a go "how hard can it be"
