    Hi there!

    It's been something I've been dying to try my hand at for a while.

    Any body know of any night classes starting this autumn in this? I'm based in the West, but would consider travelling for the right course. Would also consider something like one day a week day course.

    Please pm me with any details as I'm not always on this forum.

    Thanks in advance for your help

    I could probably teach someone the basics in about a week to a fortnight, but its practise and repetition that will make you good at it. It was only a year into spraying that things really clicked for me and I started to get a great finish straight from the gun, and getting panels straight without having to constantly refill, sand, refill, sand.

    I doubt there are any night courses, from a trade point of view panel beating and spray painting are seperate trades since the 70s I think.

    It is actually helpful as different courses might only have 1 or the other ;)

    No it was very helpful. Not many people would know that they are two different trades.
