it started to return to colour later
he's been kind enough to let me observe (or loiter probably), interesting how they mix the paint, that first layer was just a random mix to identify imperfections but the colour coat looks pretty ropey without clearcoat
more pics soon. i'm still excited. i still have no idea when i'll get my fricking car back.
it takes about 5 minutes to paint the car in the base coat once prepped. which takes a lot longer than 5 minutes!
here's the proper colour.. pre mix

Define - i use Paintology who painted my BM
They do a lot of insurance work, as with most bodyshops that is their bread and butter i guess
you are welcome to have a look at the car when it's done, or you can have a look at the BM they did a few years ago
mine has not been a priority so has been very slow but i dont mind, the work is part insurance repair (which has been an issue as the no fault claim currently is fault so my renewal was expensive) and part while you're there...
anyway, they are working on it today.. it's very dusty in these pics
