Tough when people want cheap and good right? I know its damn tedious, especially the prep work. Cool, now I know there's a guy here to go to if we need to re-spray the car.Bro..I run a paint shop in Sri kembangan n honestly there is no such thing as cheap but good quality..reason being in paint different choice of materials used means different costs..low/in house brand material means low costs whereas if u choose branded n already renowned/proven means a more higher costs..eg. u can get a 1k job but after some time d paint faulty OR a 2k job n d paint lasts at least 5 yrs...apart from that it depends on d condition of ur car..more work (rust job,body knocking etc) means more costs..n so on n so forth..

Better still bro Ken...NO gstbro fazidk,
Your spray painting charges, include GST ka?![]()
You don't ask for bill loh! Just pay cash......hhahahhahahabro fazidk,
Your spray painting charges, include GST ka?![]()
Hahaha lol bro vr owayz got some kind of answer la...You don't ask for bill loh! Just pay cash......hhahahhahaha![]()
I bring parts to my mechanic, just pay cash for workmanship, so no bill, no gst.....lolHahaha lol bro vr owayz got some kind of answer la...
Product cost sure have to past the GST to customer, but can save on workmanship gst.....lolTrue true but in my case materials like paint,lacquer,thinner etc etc got gst but I have to absorb that in my costs or else I'll have to charge higher which I x afford to do since got soo many paint shops,legal n otherwise,to pick n choose from...in other words competition is very stiff..what I can absorb I'll absorb just to bring d price to a more manageable n suitable wiz each customer..
Haaaaaa that's y la I'm (we) always hands-on working on my customers cars..:) just 2 of us working on d car (me n my colleague)..so if anything customer come straight to me..x lepas2 tangan bizI have seen a few paint shops that employed Bangla. The bangla weren't supervised of their prep work, suka-suka chatting away while doing prep work. The boss pulak always away.
I definitely don't wanna to have my car to be the white mice for the bangla to learn their trail and error.
hehe when my car is due for painting, will definitely datang and see you for some consultation 1stHaaaaaa that's y la I'm (we) always hands-on working on my customers cars..:) just 2 of us working on d car (me n my colleague)..so if anything customer come straight to me..x lepas2 tangan biz
Haha like wanna give birth jer...okok sure bro just buzz me anytime ur ready :)hehe when my car is due for painting, will definitely datang and see you for some consultation 1st
*but memanglah from the work you posted on your fb page, it looks good* slightly wavy panels pun i see you can betulkan
if you dont turun, can one really get it painted nicely? as places in behind the brake servo, under the mounts and whatnot?bro fazidk can you do engine bay paint job ? xpayh trn engine, i here nowadays many paint shop can do it.
Business nowadays in tough, Cheap price don't make money also cannot survive. High price no customer also cannot survive....Hehe I try x to pass..like I said lots of competition..even just few blocks from my place got 2 paint shops..one mmg I know charge a bit expensive but he lets his son spray..d other one charge crazee murah..an easily 1k++ job done for less then that..but quality of workmanship n d products they use I donno la..bangla workers...n that's only directly near my place..there r lots more in that particular area so one way to try beat d competition is:
- try give a good price
- maintain quality workmanship d best I can do..
you are right, bro.Haaaaaa that's y la I'm (we) always hands-on working on my customers cars..:) just 2 of us working on d car (me n my colleague)..so if anything customer come straight to me..x lepas2 tangan biz

Ur rite bro vr...glasurit is very costly...barang jer nearly 1k...x yet other costs..Glasurit won't be cheap.......
If it's true I've certainly x heard or seen it..however I think AIKKA brand if x mistaken got water based..never used it before tho so x commentMy understanding from last time talking to the Glasurit HQ in South Africa, Glasurit is moving away from oil based paints and going into water based paints which is significantly cheaper than oil. Isn't this true here in Malaysia?
My friend did spray whole car before and many years ago, close to RM6kUr rite bro vr...glasurit is very costly...barang jer nearly 1k...x yet other costs..
Yeah bro...it is costly...very costly...bolehMy friend did spray whole car before and many years ago, close to RM6k
RM3k is cost price some more.......Yeah bro...it is costly...very costly...bolehwor hehe...even when I sprayed my Wira (ex Wira now sob) it cost me 3k..n that was in '96!!!
