Hi all, I have just taken possession of a 1993 Kona explosif as seen in the readers bikes section (http://www.retrobike.co.uk/forum/viewtopic.php?t=12787). The paint work is rough, and I'm looking into the costs of getting it re-done in the original colours.
First off the existing paint needs removing, can any one recomend any where either in the Oxfordshire or Leeds areas that can do media blasting... price being my main concern.
Secondly Can any one recommend a spray shop in the same areas to respray the frame, copying the original colours of met black faded into silver- does any one know the mix codes for these colours?
I don't really have the budget to splash out on the likes of Argos.
I will also be looking to get the full set of decals reproduced...perhaps a message to Gil is called for.
Cheers!
