Paulo's Paint Jobs - New Frame Painting business

.

Trying to get his business off the ground? Looking at that bike, he needs to try a hell of a lot harder.

wow. some of you really are a bunch of embittered, petty-minded, heartless fucking cunts.

astounding really.

+1 Top Rant.

what never ceases to amaze me about this forum is it's propensity to piss on a dizzying height on the aspirations of total strangers in what can only be interpretted as some juvenile attempt to make the detractor feel ever so sleightly less dissapointed in their own utter lack of ambition.

lacks a punchline i'm afraid.

Yes, and peoples ability to offer some kind of 'informed opinion' on anything as well! A thread on brain surgery could come up and there'd be loads nobby twats saying 'actually i can't believe you're using that grade of scalpel on that piece of frontal lobe'.

I think Omarlitle is having a bad day, he's already pissed on somneone else today whereupon lots of people disagreed with him.

Dude, don't take your own crap out on other people.

Have you seen the bike? I'm all for constructive criticism, but it's just plain bad. If he wants to start a business, he needs to show off his painting skills, not just do something that looks like anyone with a few cans and some wet-and-dry can do. It needs to look at least as good as factory and be very cheap, or significantly better than factory for the kind of price he's asking. I used to work in a paint shop (for set and stage) and I wouldn't have let work of that quality be seen by potential customers unless it was very much on the cheap-and-cheerful side.

what annoys me is that none of the above have probably even been close up in person to a bike paulo has done
yet they still are happy to slag of his work
c*nts

have you seen any of yer mans' work? other than a picture on the internet?

so hows about letting the fella in on your wealth of experience in the field without resorting to petty name calling and ad-hominem attacks on a public forum? it seems like the cool thing to do, no?

Yeah, you're right. Paulo, and the forum, I'm sorry, I was pretty harsh and unfair. Whilst I haven't seen the bike in the metal, I'm afraid that in my opinion, the photos you've put up don't make it look like a decent job worthy of a £650 bike, and I think you need to show off more.

to be fair - the bike still aint worth 650 notes. even if it was painted in angel tears and fairy poo.

A good paintjob is not rocket science.
Anly fool withe the right equipment can do it....

This guy cant really expect to get paid work without at least showing some previous work he has done.

and for what it's worth, the paintjob in the other thread looks like a pile of shit.

Grow up you knob. You are being a bitter little prat and righly have been pulled up for it.

Don't make it worse by trying to paint yourself as a sanctimonious victim.

I would've put that up in the first place, it looks much better than the other one.

Could you put some close ups up? And how much do you charge?

aluminium polishing, before

after

That's pretty good, what did you do? hand polished or?

i used polishing compound and a buffer
