Hi mate,
I just emailed you....
I'm not questioning the standard of anyone's work...in fact I was worried that Mr Vaz was potentially undercharging for his work. Given historical concerns with his work there are reasons for that.
The basis for my lament is that I was only about 3 days away from getting Armourtex to do the job we really wanted at a very good price [in relation to the value of the frame]. The fiasco with the buyers of armourtex's stock and them refusing to do bikes having promised to is a pain. Armourtex were very streamlined for what they were doing and even had in-house bike people who knew the score in regards to stripping frames and generally how to handle shit. These new guys are all about industrial work as are most of the other firms I've found which, adds a bit of concern plus when sending frames that aren't in London I fear the hamfists. You only have to look at the colour tech thread here to see how things can go bad at the hands of someone that is a bike person.x

Guys,
A good paintjob costs money. Simple as. You get what you pay for. a lot of man hours go into a good finish, more than I would imagine most people on this forum would understand.
It's like saying you want a Rapha jersey, but only want to pay Decathlon money.
If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
