DIY Paint Shop

[Papadog84]

Very interesting idea.



I would say a major factor for me would be the price point. I would imagine you are going to have a lot of overhead costs (rent, insurance, permits, tools, maintenance, supplies, staff, EPA fees, etc) so the price would have to be high enough to cover all of that....however, on the flip side if you set the price too high I'd just pay a shop to do the job.

I'm in California, so things are different here. But my neighbor owns his own body shop. Due to costs of owning/operating a booth, he subs out all his major paint work. So I would imagine that has a large impact on his bottom line for profitability.

I'm thinking 150 to 250 for 6 hours of booth time
