There's no such thing! Good and cheap don't go together with spray painting unfortunately. The best finish requires careful preparation, which takes a considerable amount of time, and as we all know, time is money, especially if is professional labour! Add quality paint materials in the right quantities and your price goes up. You can bring down the price of painting by skimping on the prep work and using less paint and/or cheaper paint, none of which will give you a good long lasting job. I know we all want to spend as little as possible, but painting is one area where you need to spend the bobs because a poor paint job will devalue any car. Billy got a car done not so long ago, maybe he can remind us where he got that done and what he thought of the job. I see you're in Midleton, so you can try Williams Cars there by Robinsons tyres. Barry may not be the cheapest, but he does quality work.
