This character had Rick's car for four months, and did all of the actual prep and painting in two weeks, making mistake after mistake causing me to cringe.

The man is called Dave Lucas hiis forum persona was cazemi, and has a unit in Brunswick village, full of equipment he has neither paid for nor owns, and "trades" on facebook as Devilpaint.

He is nothing short of a thief and I'm ashamed to say I was taken in by his rhetoric and "pally pally" demeanour, and it was I that recommended his services to Rick in the first place, much to my no chagrin, based upon motorcycle paintwork he'd carried out.

The man owes me thousands of pounds, and has no intention of paying, in short he's a charlatan and shark.

I hope that is a realistic and reasonable assessment of the "painter" for you Jon
