The PO of my focus tried to fix several small chips in the front and rear bumper and messed up. Each spot is smaller than a loonie, it looks like he added touched up paint, tried to sand it flat, and went through the clear in a few spots. The car is black, which I know is easier to work on. Is there some guy who is mobile, or a paintshop I can toss a few bucks to and a case of beer to get some really small spots fixed? Need A Mechanic?

RE: Need A Mechanic?

RE: Need A Mechanic? Need Some Custom Work? - esrevenge - 05-16-2012 Hi - Thanks for the post, much appreciated. Im in Ottawa and was looking for a good recommended mechanic. I think I will try Roch Auto or the place on Canotek. Im in the East End. Are both these shops good to work on the Ford Focus? Any specific mechanic I should ask for if the shops have multiple mechanics...? Thanks again.... RE: Need A Mechanic? Need Some Custom Work? - Flofocus - 05-16-2012 Roch only has 1 other mechanic who is just as good as him. All work is inspected by Roch himself anyways. He is busy, very busy - tried bringing him my car this week, and he gave me an appointment 2 weeks out, my car was dead so I had to bring it somewhere else. |
