Before you begin, ask yourself the following questions:
Is painting the car the best way to alter its appearance?
What are the age and value of the and how do those compare with the cost of the custom paint job--the answer to “will it be worth the cost?

- Determine the extent of exterior surface of the car being covered and type of coverage required (cosmetic or damage repair)
- Determine the amount of specialized detail required to complete job properly. This calculation will affect the skill required of the painter and the cost of the painting materials.
