I’m happy with the strip-and-repaint at Turweston by Mick Allan done in 2019.
Arizona? Just kidding 
A very important factor when painting a plane is to make sure everything that would require disassembly of newly painted components in the foreseeable future gets done now, not after paint. Guess what I’m doing now? Right wing coming off and back on this weekend, same for the left wing next weekend. Flight control linkages need to be shimmed…
Hoping to get to Arizona for paint before it’s too hot there, might end up being in autumn if I get too fussy with the ongoing preparations. Flying all summer with rough paint is less emotionally stressful anyway.
I guess not many people are thinking about this right now, hence the lack of replies… and you may have to go further than Belgium, to a place where there is more GA.
Hi all,
I found some older threads so thought I’d ask again. Any recommendations for paint shops in or near Belgium? I’m thinking about freshening up my plane (including the fabric portion) and was wondering where to go and what the ballpark cost would be (two-tone paint).
Any help is appreciated!

We would go for Termikas, but my club decided to postpone the painting a year, at least.

Lots of Swedish aircraft have been done by Termikas and people seem generally happy with the result. I’ve heard some complaints of delays or additional cost, but none about the quality of work.
Some years ago we did both our club’s PA28s at Termikas in Lithuania, and we are satisfied with their job.
Thanks everyone for the posts and PMs. If you have any further suggestions, please let me know!
