AAAAAAARRRRGGGHHHHH!!!!!!

So Sorry to hear and see this happen to your bus....

Looks freshly painted and just waiting for window seals too...

Sorry man!
 
Cheers dude ..

It has just been painted and polished and I am just rebuilding .. The worse thing was I was moving something to stop it damaging the paint when something else fell and did it ..

.. Ah well .. at least I painted it myself and I can resolve it at minimal cost .. except time and effort of course!

Just had to vent it on here really .. little sympathy coming from Mrs! ;)

Nightmare!!!
I remember a spare bus anti roll bar falling from the garage roof onto my freshly painted beetle
Makes you feel a bit queasy, don't it???
 
Can't see the pic at work but I can feel the pain. I dropped a spanner onto the freshly painted bumper when I was rebuilding our bus. I really did feel sick, luckily it was easy to put right (by the experts, not me!).
 
Ewwwww! Looks gash on such shiny paintwork! About as welcome as a wart on the end of your nose! :lol:
Get it sorted I say.
You have my full sympathy!

Own a Bay?......Feel the love!
 
This must be frustrating, but think of it as a minor plip on the road to paradise! It can be sorted out - I think Doris had a similar thing happen to her.

Don't worry about it, it can be sorted.
:D

Nothing worse than going out of your way to be careful only to cause the outcome you would have probably have avoided if you'd done nothing.
 
Cheers guys ..

I feel better about it today .. it was just one of those days yesterday .. 2 steps back n all that!

Knocked out, skimmed, stopped and primered already .. its now just a bad memory and a photo!

;)

Thats the kind of thing i would do.
Lucky you can sort it yourself, id be crying all the way to the paint shop telling them the misses did it!
 
aRsE, indeed.

Reversed into my own trailer on the way to BustFest - the 3point turn that I was doing at the time was due to a passenger 'forgetting' both beer and a sleeping bag and wanted me to divert to Tesco........Ahhhhhrrrhhhhh. So angry.

Next day as you say, accept and move on, in fact the co owner of my bus came up with a neat idea to air brush in the repair (after pull, fill, flat) got to say 1st class, can't see a lip in the paint. I think white (pastel) is quite forgiving however....
