6 things to keep in mind before painting a car

A few years after buying the car, the hobby car gets dirty to look at. So maybe you think you have to paint your hobby car. But painting a car is quite expensive. So as a car owner, there are some important things you must keep in mind before painting a car.

1. Is your car suitable for painting?

You want to paint your car. But have you ever wondered if the car is fit and suitable for painting? There is no need to paint if it looks dirty or scratches. Take a look at the cost of painting. If the cost of painting is 25% of the current value of your car, then you don’t even have to think about repainting your car. Instead, you can do the work of car wash or polishing. That will bring back the beauty of the car.

2. Color selection:

Suppose your car is in good condition for painting. Ever wonder if you want to keep your car the same color as before, or paint the car in a new color? If you want to change the car to a different color, you need to think very seriously. Because it is related to the increase in financial costs.

3. Painter quality:

After choosing the color to paint, you have to think about what kind, with whom to paint. Suppose a car servicing center asks for BDT 20,000 for painting a car. And he talked to another car servicing center and saw that they wanted only 10,000 takas! Then you realize that you can’t get good quality paint and finishing where it costs less. So know very well about where, and in which servicing center you will paint the car. Explain to them what quality of paint they will use, how many layers, and what kind of finish they want, and match their choice of color and color quality. Car painting should be done with care.

4. Painting quality:

Car owners often have doubts about whether the painter has painted well or not. If you paint a car with an amateur, the result will not be very good. Again, if you paint at a professional servicing center, you will get good results in terms of quality and finishing of the car. There are also differences in the quality of the painting system (color, color palette, painter). The real difference is elsewhere. That is, before painting, a painter or servicing center is preparing the car for how and for how long to paint. If a painter service center spends about 10 hours before painting your car and just prepares the car for painting, then that painter or servicing center can be put in a good painting system.

5. Preparation before painting the car:

Color, color quality, painter, that’s all. The next step is to prepare for painting. Remember, some parts or parts of the car’s exterior are not painted when the car is painted. Such parts as car door lock, bumper, headlight but these parts do not fall into the color of the exterior of the car. These have to be opened or covered before painting. Painting in a good servicing center will keep the non-painted parts as open as possible. Then when the paint is done, the parts will be put in the right place again. If you paint at a cheap servicing center, you will paint the car by covering them with masking tape or paper. Also, the car has to be sanded before painting. Sanding means preparing the car for painting on the rubble. The better this sanding, the better the car will be painted. So whether you or the servicing center, wherever you paint the car, you must have a very good and perfect sanding before painting the car.

6. Now color:

When the car is ready to be painted, the next task is to paint the car. Now the question is can you do the painting yourself? The answer is not to paint your own car. If you do not have good skills and previous experience in this regard, it is better to hire a professional. If you paint yourself, the paint will not look good on the car and the finish will not be nice. It is better to paint the car with a skilled painter or servicing center. And before painting the car, you should know a little bit about priming and painting. Then decide with whom to paint the car.

Before painting your car, listen to the above. Before the exterior of the car comes into view. So maintaining the beauty of the car will increase the quality and you can be satisfied with your hobby car. And if you want to keep an eye on everything inside the car and be safe with the car, then there is a Prohori vehicle tracker.
