Is it unreasonable to expect good results from a body shop that may never have sprayed motorcycle fairings before?
The results are less than desirable. Lines in the finish almost as if the wrong grit paper was used or wrong grit rubbing compound still shiny though with a good reflection, a couple runs not tidied up although in inconspicous areas you wouldnt see unless you really look. There are a few bubbly patches too. And on one panel they havent painted to the edge/ sanded too much back by a mm or 2 in places. They used 1k instead of 2k paint as they couldnt get the 2k to stick. They told me the panels were ready for collection. The paint however is still soft after 4 days now (can dig my nails in). I tried to apply a vinyl decal, i pulled the decal back to get an air bubble out and it has lifted a huge strip of paint off. Was this me being a numpty or just a bad paint job? Was i meant to leave the panels longer than the 2 days they told me?
All in all i paid 159 for three panels, for that price is this the work i should expect or shall i ask for a refund/discount.. i dont want my panels painted there again.
