what do i do to prepare the car for the paint job?
|
Depends on how far you want to go ... remove tail lights, mouldings, bumpers, mirrors etc etc - the less work the painters have to do, you will save. Best discuss with them a price first.

how much did your whole job costs from start to finish?
|
$3K all up - this was exceptional as no prep work by me, just drive in drive out. Only thing not painted was engine bay. Other places quoted $4.5-$5K on average.
Bear in mind my car had NO rust to be attended to ...
| Quote: |
how LONG did it take to do? whats the quickest amount of time a paint job can be done?
|
I gave them 4 weeks and it was done in that time - however I noticed they only got off their butts into the 3rd week or so. Depends on how good your painter is at meeting deadlines.
| Quote: |
what paint codes did you use?
|
Black and white gloss - no specific requirement other than it had to be glossy 2 pac ...
| Quote: |
do you need special paint for the bumpers?
|
Not sure - they painted it, I just paid them however it appears to be the same paint.
| Quote: |
what is the most costly part of the job (labour wise) i can cut out by doing it myself?
|
Disassembling the car and removing any rust I think.
| Quote: |
when you say strip back a layer? do you mean doing a full cut? or a sanding job?
|
You could paint over the existing paint although that is cheapskate - normal resprays will at least include stripping back a layer of paint. Most paintshops do this by applying a paint remover and then scrapping it off.
You can go for a bare metal respray which strips things right down to the metal but you're looking at something over $5K then.
| Quote: |
does anyone know a good spray place in the south sydney area (round arncliffe)?
|
Dunno - best to visit several paintshops like I did, see their showcars, see if you 'like' / trust whoever deals with you etc etc. Only then will you be able to make an informed decision as to who to go with.
Other than that, remember that paintjobs aren't cheap and you get what you pay for.
Good luck!
