Aero GSA Posted June 28, 2011 Share Quote Diepseun - "how much does he charge for a custom paint job on a frame"? The cost depends on what colour you want and how intricate your design is that you want. To custom paint the same as I did our Scott downhill bikes will be in the region of R1000-00.

Diepseun Posted July 4, 2011 Share candy apple red but also with the glitter flakes in. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aero GSA Posted July 4, 2011 Share Candy apple is a bi-atch to spray (and very expensive) and even harder to touch up. Glitter paint needs plenty clear coat to get it all covered up smooth. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
