a big workshop only take bout half day to spray ur bumper in the oven.

to spray bumper, there is normally a bumper paint coat they need to use....some workshops din use.

by applying tat, the bumper paint will not peel off during high pressure car wash (like car wash use tat gun)

Thanks for the reply! Yah, my bumper last time ppl "kiss".. so take go workshop at Jln 225 to do. Change new bumper and spray. Not even one week i think, bubbles appear. So i took it back to the work shop. They help me use the "watergun" and shoot. A lot of paint peeled off. Then respray. I dont know what method they use lar.

After that, another a month or so, happened again. I was so pissed. And like jst to lazy 2 go back to the same shop. Initially the guy there said, y dont u drive until the paint drop only we help u redo it. I was like wth? Crazy ah.. Imagine how long I hav 2 wait.

I learn not 2 simply trust these "panel workshops" anymore. Not all or doing a proper business. Some repair car also use damn old parts, but the claim so much for the insurance.

huakenny, do u know any workshops that provide spraying service?
