I can't post a new thread as I'm a newbie but I picked up this Phillips (I think) frame for £25. I've stripped everything off it (bar the cranks and bottom bracket) and started to strip the paint too.
I'm just wondering about respray - a lot of people seem to think it's not worth doing yourself. I rang Armour Tex in Hackney and they quoted £75 for the lot (powder coat, colour and lacquer) which seems like a good deal, but at the same time it's my first conversion and I would like to do this as cheap as possible (and also do everything myself).
Is it possible to do a decent job with the can and then perhaps get the lacquer done professionally?
Cheers!
How hard is it to get a decent finish with a rattle can? I'm quite happy spending time on the prep, sanding etc
