    Panel beater said extra money as extra work, to paint it. Don't think I can get insurer to pay for it all.

    Been trying to talk to the guy today to discuss options but he hasn't called me back.

    Tim, agree that if it is going to be done then needs to be done properly and that involves sanding back and as you said "its a pain in the arse!"

    from what i understand the process is a light sand then a high fill with a product mixed properly to use on flexible plastic. Then sand again back to a ncie smooth finish and paint with a paint mixed properly for the flexible plastic surface.

    I was told that if they dont use the right product it will be prone to cracking.
