Oink Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 The paint on my number plates is cracking and peeling off. I guess you do not just get pots of black and white paint and repaint yourself. Does anyone know the procedure to get replacement plates? Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevenl Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 Go to dlt with blue book and ask for replacements. They can prepare for a fee Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broken Record Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 Same thing is happening on my car, anyone know how long it takes to get the plates once you have shown the blue book ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gonsalviz Posted March 24, 2016 Share Posted March 24, 2016 Just get it repainted. Have you never seen the scenic paintings on Thai plates? Got to cost less and be far less hassle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Langsuan Man Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 It will probably be free since there was a bad batch of plates issued by the LTO a couple of years ago and believe it or not they replaced them all with a minimum of fuss This was in Pattaya but I think that it was Thailand wide problem Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ChesneyHawkes Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 Just get it repainted. Have you never seen the scenic paintings on Thai plates? Got to cost less and be far less hassle. Scenic paintings means the plates were bought at auction, probably classified as defacing if you do it yourself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NUUM Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 Before painting remember that you do not own the plates... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johng Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 Don't paint them the police could class them as fake number plates and issue quite a hefty fine. If you look closely at your new plates you'll see the background paint has holographic images imbeded many people (motor cyclists) have been fined for cutting their plates to a smaller size removing the round hologram in one corner.

kartman Posted March 25, 2016 Share Posted March 25, 2016 Best to make sure of replacement first put them on the ground and drive over them 'oops' , don't want to get to the DLT and they say these are still OK your then stuck with them Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
