Beardog Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 I use a paint shop that sells a large selection of custom colors. Pearls metal flake & Chameleon. They also have regular stock colors. The shop has a painter that does some real good work! They sprayed My ER6n for about 10,000 because I had double the amount of panels sprayed. Very reasonable & great quality. The name of the shop Is Mukdelight almost across the street from Maxxis tires (just past Pattaya Nua on sukimvette. Pm me & I will get you tele number & directions or look here http://www.thaivisa.com/forum/topic/669428-paint-shops-for-custom-paints/ It has directions in the post. The owner speaks English decent & tells the painter what you want. I have sent 20 people there & the 6 people that had work done had high praises of the place. Unlike Toyota the body man can do any creative mods as well.He also does a great job on the frame if you need to repaint. I am currently finishing the front light housing & tach area and the wrap around the seat. Last will be the tank. Barry 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barry Sounds just what i wanted as i wanted to spray it a dark candy apple red instead of the crappy red that comes standard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gone Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 I also agree that it is very cheap to buy all new snap-on body parts from the Honda shops or most motorcycle parts shops. 10,000 baht is a LOT to spray a bike. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beardog Posted November 18, 2013 Share Posted November 18, 2013 I also agree that it is very cheap to buy all new snap-on body parts from the Honda shops or most motorcycle parts shops. 10,000 baht is a LOT to spray a bike. Not this paint The paint was 7500 just for the paint. But it is the most expensive color in The U.S. England all of Europe Australia & here. for 2 qts. in the U.S. it is close to $400.00 not including hardner fisheye remover reducer & then there is the clear coat. Mine is a custom not a schlock 1 coat spray on. The labor is for 14 pieces. Not a motoscooter. I charge in the U.S. for this exact job close to $1000.00 just for the labor & have many jobs I do at this price. I don't deal to the cheaper crowd. They get to go to Earl Schieb or Miracle. My Hybusa Kawi 1000 Kawi1100. & 3 other bikes were shot in Imron. Aircraft paint. You don't even want to know the price if 10,000 baht sounds high for you. Typical is 5000 baht for a respray. It depends what you want & you know the saying you get what you pay for. All my top end Jobs come with a 10 year guaranty & have only had one job fail in 36 years as a painter. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gone Posted November 19, 2013 Share Posted November 19, 2013 (edited) Beardog, I agree that good paint, good job etc costs money and I'm not a cheapy when it comes to a good paint job. That would be ok on a chopper like mine or a decent bike however the OP was asking about getting a Nouvo sprayed so.... Piccadilly Circus: You might be right about the snap on parts. I wouldn't know these days but yes many years ago they were cheap for the standard Honda Click etc but 10k to spray a guys Nouvo might still be a little to much unless he does want to invest in a nice custom job like Beardog was saying. Next time I get my bike painted I might go for a mural if anyone knows a good painter? This won't be for some time however.

The only reason I re- mention it - the OP pm'd me & said he wanted to switch his ride to a custom set of colors Instead of just replacing the parts.But you know the prices have gone up substantially since 2006 when I replaced panels. Now almost double. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
