Anyone know of somewhere that does arch rolling in the Gloucester ish area ?
The car is tucked up for winter and was hoping that Arch Enemy would come out and roll the rears ready for May but I am out of their area, I would need to take the car to them.
Was hoping someone might know of a company closer to me that they have used.....?
A lot of people have used Arch Enemy on here so if I can't find anyone decent close to home will tax it in May and take the car to them.

Arch Enemy Came and did mine in gloucester a few years ago, the guy that came normally did the Oxford area and just charged me an extra £20 or so for the extra travel. Worth asking

Long time no see, nice to know your still around
I called Arch Enemy before I posted this and they said they no longer do this area. The only way they would do it is if I took the car closer to them. I can't find anyone else so looks like that's what I will have to do.

Bless thanks for the offer Shinn but I wouldn't know where to start in doing it myself.
For the sake of £100 ish quid I thought it would be easier to give it to someone who knows what they are doing.

I think it's just a case of warming the area up with a heat gun to prevent the paint from cracking and just taking your time with the roller

I still lurk on here now and every now and then, and I'm hoping to get along to more meets this yearTinker2 wrote:Long time no see, nice to know your still around

.Shame they don't do this area anymore as the guy that came and did mine did a great job.
I can't imagion DIYing it should be too hard as its a relativly straight forward job if your just after a roll.
I needed a roll and pull, so like you I felt more comforable paying someone to save me messing it up. There's bound to be other places that could do it for you, have you tried any bodyshops?

Re: Arch Rolling Gloucester Ish Area ?
Sounds stupid but I hadn't thought of asking a body shop, are there any you have used in our area ?

Re: Arch Rolling Gloucester Ish Area ?
Unfortunately I don't have any recommendations for a bodyshop sorry, but I will ask around .
I'm definitely up for japday so I'll go put my name down on the sign up thread as I missed japfest last year thanks to two of my friends inconsideratly getting married on the same day.
