I asked for a quote I'm guessing this includes the minor body work too, just dings and stuff nothing major. Oh yeah I'm in Stockton Ca and it will be the same color.Is $2500.00 a good price to paint my 92 GMC 1500 Sierra?
if you want a cheap job yes but to paint the truck wright is would be more like $3000-4000 if the pull all the trim and windows! if thay don't it will peel in a year or two!Is $2500.00 a good price to paint my 92 GMC 1500 Sierra?
sounds a little on the high range. is the car worth that much ??? maybe you should find two different places.
If you get a drink from an office store (staples or office depot) you pay $3 for the drink. go to a supermarket and get a whole case for $3.
try and get a quote from a body shop just for the dents and dings. dont go to the paint shop for dent repair. they usually charge a lot more then a normal place.
hope that helped you a bit.
It hard to say, I just spent $1300 on my 81 GMC step side. At times I wish I had spent more money for a better paint job, but who's to say that I would have gotten a better one. So you will have to do your home work and look around an check a few difference places out to fine the best painting shop. It about how much you like your truck and how long your are planing to keep it. Good Luck '; Some places wanted well over $3000 too much money. An I love my truck.
is it really worth it to paint a 17 year old car
especially when its the same color
and all you had to do was wax your car every once in a while
so it doesnt look like crap
if you see the guys work on other vehicles and how much you want it to be perfect is the problem...talk to some of his costomers. $4000.00 should be like brand new.
NO
you can get it done for less then $1000
YES

Two-Tone Paint Job Price?
I'm thinking about giving my HHR a two-tone paint job going with a hot-rod look. It has a nice line around the middle of the car which would be a great place to split the colors. I'm thinking red on the top and black on the bottom. So anyway, I live in PA, and I'm curious if anyone has either two-toned a car before, of if someone does it for a living and could give me a ball park price.Two-Tone Paint Job Price?
There wouldn't be much difference between this and one color. It depends on how much you want to spend - between a few hundred (Earl Scheib), to as much as 50 grand or more.
Most quality jobs should empty your pocket at around 1500-3000$.
K.I.S.S.: use the bullet-proof factory paint coat on the upper half of the vehicle, and paint the lower half a different color. Otherwise it's back to the spray booth in 5 years. This will also save you major cash.Can you help set up this

How do you price a painting?
how would you know if it's too cheap too expensive overpriced or what ? do you consider the kind of materials and paint used? do you adjust it for the audience? the length of time you gave? and sive of the painting? How do you price?How do you price a painting?
You should at least cover your costs - materials and time (time at least at the normal wage level). Anything above that depends on how you rate your artistic input into the painting - how developed you are as an artist and how much artistic effort went into it. Size is not necessarily a factor, but it will be covered by cost of materials and time. Adjust the price for how likely it is that it will sell considering the tastes of the market (basic law of supply and demand). Also price it competitively with the prices of other people's work of a similar type and standard.
I know a lady who spent hundreds of dollars on each painting for the materials, but her ability was poor so the paintings themselves were not appealling enough to even make back those costs. So this is a case in which the paintings didn't rate even the cost of materials. It isn't necessary to use the best materials anyway. All that really matters is that they are durable and look okay. Don't use very cheap materials. Student grade paints and a decent canvas are good enough.How do you price a painting?
An artist once told me when I asked a similar question ';If you're charging less than what you would make, minimum wage, for the time you spent- you're undercharging.'; So I'd would say that how long you spent on the painting is a big factor.
I'd also consider: Is the subject of your painting popular? For example, is the subject popular in culture today or a pop-icon? For example, when the new Harry Potter movie comes out, there will be increased sales of HP products and fan-art.
If your materials are expensive, factor that in. Maybe the painting didn't take long at all to paint, but if you charge minimum wage/hour and the price is less than the materials' cost- of course raise the price.
I personally think the 'minimum wage' idea is great to get a basic idea of what the MINIMUM price should be. Of course, test the waters. Are people buying your paintings as soon as they're up for sale? Raise the prices to see up to what price people are feeling comfortable paying [don't ask directly, because they're say less money to get a better deal ;) ].
GOOD LUCK!
