The amount of repainting your car needs:
Before you think of repainting your car, you need to know how much your car needs to be repainted. If you see that your car only has a small area that requires it to be restored then you would not have to repaint the entire car. If you do not repaint the entire car the price will also go down than a full cover repainting job. Now, the price for painting one panel may charge from Rs.2000 to Rs.6000. But the quality of the exterior paint is also a vital factor that determines the painting cost. Therefore if your exterior paint quality is awful and rusty you may require the entire body to be carefully repainted. In these types of cases, the price will be more expensive than the one where you are repainting one panel only.

Know the kind of painting your car needs and the types of paint to use:
Do you know when it comes to painting your car there are a couple of options for car owners? For instance, if you want to retain the original colour of the car, the cost will also be lower than repainting the car in a new shade since applying a new colour may require the painter to cover the entire car from inside out. However, this also means that a lot of work has to be invested in the disassembling job as well. If this is the case then the price may be charged between Rs.40,000 to Rs.60,000. The car owner must be aware that the cost depends on the different types of paint used in repainting your car. Hence, If the car owner wants high-quality paint then it will be more expensive but high-quality paint can last longer and the visual effect also reflects the price.
