Re: Car Bodywork & Painting - KJ Antony Automobiles (Delhi) Time to update my review.
Sorry to bump in late but I have to post it in the thread. Their color matching skills are pathetic! My ride is a Carbon Bronze Civic and had visited KJA in 2011 for front fender/both bumpers paint job. They asked me to leave the car for 5 days, got it done in 5 days but the color goof up was very obvious. I told Augustine about it and he repeated tried to convince me that the color match was perfect! I mean come on... if a customer can see the difference (which was very obvious, not psychological, believe me), anyone can spot it! But the darn guy took 2 hours to get convinced and had to repaint the piece!
To cut to the chase, here is my rating for him (higher the better)... 1) Communication: 4/5 - the guy is a smooth talker and will make you feel supremacy of his work through this words. 2) Paint Job: 3/5 - Average I guess, finished product is good, but what about color mismatch!!! If a painter can't match the color, his work can not get beyond average ratings IMHO. 3) Cleanliness of the premises: 3/5 - Like so many of them, he gets cars painted in the open. So, dust and wind blown sprays droplets on newly finished car panel are a given. 4) Price: 2/5 - What you pay is definitely on higher side IMO. And this is not the case of 'what you pay is what you get!'
To be really honest, this "DuPont/3M products" euphoria is becoming too common to hear now a days! Every painter tells you this is what he is using, unless you are going to get the whole freakin' car done in INR 10K!!! I mean, if that's the case, you better get worried! Competition has caught up and there are better places for Paint Jobs in Delhi! The one that Honda Monk has posted, is one of the good ones. I haven't been to KJA after that initial hiccup.
My 2 cents...
