Studio Note

Bicycle frames and forks, motorcycle tanks, fairings and full bikes, helmets, surfboards, car parts, other hard-surface objects that take paint — I don't do single-colour paint jobs.

Tell me your ideas, they may very well be vague or described by abstract words such as "loud", I'll run with it. You get a set of drafts and visualisations and decide the way to go. One round of minor corrections is included. If we agree on a design and timing you get a spot and I'll start painting.

That question is impossible to answer, starting point is 600€ + VAT to give you an idea. Things like the number of layers and colours, the complexity of the design and masking, material choice and object complexity influence the price.

There is a waiting list. Once we have a vision and I start painting, I aim for a 6 to 8 week turnaround [without the design phase].

Send them in or drop them off in Leipzig.

Frames and forks are ideally disassembled. If that's a problem, I have workshops I work with, but I take no responsibility for their work. Other objects should be dismantled and emptied, best we talk about it beforehand. I do media blasting myself if appropriate; carbon parts are hand-sanded.

It is paint, like on any car. I use modern paint systems and clear coats. But it stays paint: areas that are prone to chipping and scratching should be covered with paint protection vinyl.

I don't do restorations or replicas.

Coming soon.
