Sand and spraypaint my toyota commuter

$800

Cairns QLD, Australia

27th Oct 2024

Hi! My poor old campervan comes fully wrapped in an old very sundamaged silver wrapping. It’s fully cracked to the point where professionals said they wouldn’t take on the job to take it off cause it would take too long scratching it all off. The exterior of the car won’t look amazing anyway as there are lots of bumps and scratches already, so I think it wouldn’t matter too much if it just got sanded off and painted over instead of cleanly getting the wrapping off. I’m looking for someone with experience to help out as I’ve never done anything like it before, as well as a garage or driveway to use as a workplace 😊 If you have any other suggestions to make it look more presentable I wouldn’t mind hearing them too! Thanks
