what can i expect to pay for a bare bone paint job for a 1999 jeep cherokee, don’t want to put to much money in it.

@dripper Around here, MAACO routinely has $399 paint job specials Is that low enough for you? I wouldn’t expect great results, though It might be sufficient for something ugly looking that you want to sell in a hurry . . .

I’ve had cars painted by Earl Scheib and MAACO. I did the prep on each car. Earls would shoot over dirt and paint your wheels and tires to boot with their stock colors. MAACO did a better job and would shoot any color so it matches your door jambs.Yes, for that low low price, you don’t get the door …

I agree, if you do the prep, the MAACO jobs can be decent. Otherwise they are known for grinding marks and overspray on windows and trim. Back in the 60’s I made a deal with a body shop and got a paint job for $20 but I did all the prep work and taping. Of course thats when paint was $5 a quart i…

I had a Chevy Impala repainted (original color) by MAACO for $1400 which included replacing a front fender with a used one. This was their mid level paint job and it stood up really well. When I sold the car 10 years later there were no chips or rust and the buyer was really impressed.

Earl Scheib and MAACO will do prep work. It will cost a lot more than $400 though.

I used to get vehicles painted at Earl Scheib and at Maaco. I usually got good paint jobs but only if I did the prep work myself. Just as @db4690 said…don’t expect great results though…it’s not going to happen.
