• Hello Roberts fans!
    I have had my 1984 Chas Roberts repaired by Winston Vaz. I then took it to Fox Plating in Sydenham to be chromed (hopefully picking it up tomorrow).
    Now I need to find a painter who can actually get the colour scheme right. There is a nice Roberts for sale on eBay now and I want a very similar paint job. It's very much a Motorola copy.
    But who can I trust?
    Argos seem good but the prices are really high!

  • Mario Vaz? 🤷‍♂️

  • Mario will do it cheaper but his paint does chip easily (something to do with legal changes around the use of stove enamel?) and the finish isn't always perfect on complicated designs.

    I'd avoid Mario for anything other than one colour cheap jobs.

    Ive got a Jason Rourke resprayed frame in 3 colours including flouro which is pretty much perfect, 4 or 5 times better in terms of quality/finish and well worth posting up to him and paying for the shipping back. I can send you photos if you'd like?

  • Colourtech seem decent @Jingle_Jangle had a frame done there recently which looks beaut.
