Durham · while you wait

The cheapest way to make your car look completely different.

Two hours in our Durham workshop and a set of tired, rusty calipers comes back looking like it left the factory that way.

Freshly painted brake calipers on a car at the Utopia workshop in Durham

Painted on the car in two to three hours — brakes never disturbed.

The difference

Same wheels. Same car. Two hours apart.

The bit everyone notices, and the bit almost nobody bothers to fix.

What happens on the day

Why ours stays on.

The reason a proper job costs what it costs, and lasts like it should.

Sanded right back

Calipers and hubs sanded down to remove every bit of old paint and imperfection.

Etch primer

Primer goes on first so the colour has something to grip, not just bare metal.

Your colour

Multiple base coats in OEM-grade paint, custom mixed to whatever you picked.

Three lacquer coats

Heat-resistant lacquer that shrugs off brake dust, wheel acid and brake fluid.

Recent work

From Range Rover SVR to Tesla.
