Specialist Paintworks

Specialist Paintworks Based on the Dorset coast. Specialist paintworks is a fully loaded custom paint shop with over 25 years trade Experience in Prestige, sports, classic vehicles.

pre merger mercedes enthusiast, with a wealth of experience in this era of mercedes. Started in early 2009 I set up Specialist Paintworks to cater for the Drag car, Hot rod and Classic Car industry,

Over the last few years I have also also become very well known in the VAG circles for the many show cars and mag featured vehicles in this marque. From basic small repairs to full custom airbrushed

drag car designs, Specialist Paintworks is very varied workshop with over 17 years trade experience and a huge portfolio of work! with past clients ranging from the king and queen of Bahrain to one off builds with the Ariel atom motor company,and the sponsorship of two famous UK Drag cars running my custom paint. A professional courteous and honest ethos is always applied. There is not many "True custom Paintshops" out there anymore, but I'm proud to class myself as a selected few that have genuine experience in this area and is able to take on any custom build put infront of me. The workshop is fully loaded with fabrication facilities and low bake custom made spray booth,office and stores.

2015 has been quite a big year so far with my paintwork being featured in Fastcar Magazine and the workshop video being present on there main website,
Both the Dragcars i've painted being featured numerous times in custom car magazine and also picking up a few trophy's for best paint. Social media is new for me this year and seems to have a fair following via my instagram and facebook accounts. Also new this year is the full set of Fast and Furious show cars I am doing for a private client,with the first being a 700BHP fortune RX ,then a Dodge Charger with Drag car charged Block. Its a exciting Time at SPW so jump on board and follow the show.
