I am shortly to investigate the possibility of giving my van a paint job. Little unsure of what to go for at this stage but would like to know what kind of price I am looking at. Any1 recently had theirs done? how much did it cost.

cheers

All depends on how serious you want the job to be, if you want all the seams stripped out, derusted, blasted, welded, a thousand undercoats, oven baked top coats you could be talking a couple of thousand.
If you want someone to give it a quick spray over then not a lot.

You pays your money and you takes your choice.

Mine cost £850 with 3 colours, windows out, plus inside and suspension..These fellers have been spraying for 20 years it was not a "blow over" it took two weeks to complete the seams were not "stripped" or "blasted" or "welded" there were 3coats primer 1 undercoat then finished with high gloss two pack oven baked three times as there were three colours.

Yes you can pay thousands ,but I prefer not to

12months on and I'm still very happy

Had mine done last year cost me £2000 and they had it for 3 weeks, that was totally stripped and repainted. The guys I used are not cheap but are very good.
