Welcome to QuickDraw Design Custom Paint and Airbrush Art

Thanks for stopping by. We offer a wide range of paint and graphic services from cartoons and illustration to full on custom paint and airbrush art to pin striping. As you can see in my gallery, I have worked in a lot of different mediums over the past 30 or so years and am quite comfortable taking on new challenges when they arise. I have literally painted on everything from Hot Wheels cars to Eighteen Wheelers and even a couple pairs of tennis shoes!  Listed below are our procedures and a  basic schedule of pricing and labor rates for your convenience so as to help you in planning your next project.

G eneral info  As with everything in business, time is money. No different here. If you want a slick design showing what the finished product will look like, the charge is $250 to $400. Simple flames and such or if you can provide own artwork, is free. For insurance work we charge $25 for an estimate and can work with your insurance company to ensure you get what you are entitled to concerning proper repairs. I have 15 years experience as an estimator and insurance adjuster so I can handle most problems that occur. Because there are so many variables in custom painting, pricing is difficult at best, but they generally range from $1,000 to $4,000 depending on the complexity of the artwork and amount of prep and bodywork required. As you would expect, that range can be exceeded if the work is extensive enough.

Paint and Artwork  I carry a complete line of HOK products as well as a Valspar mixing system so, matching colors on repairs is not a problem. With over 30yrs. experience as an artist, neither are styles or types of art.

Please note  It is not possible to give an exact quote until your sheetmetal arrives. We do not charge for a few dings but if it requires more than just general prep work, it will cost more. Our body work rate is $50 per hour.

New Sheet Metal  Depending on the manufacturer, some parts require more bodywork than others. It is what it is. I don't make them I just fix them.

Frames  As with the sheet metal all  scratches, dings, dents and welds are filled and sanded smooth then primed with House of Kolor KP Primer for a slick look.

G eneral Prep and Procedure  All parts are cleaned  thoroughly and, if needed, media blasted, to ensure the best possible adhesion. Once all the body work has been attended to and your parts have been readied for paint, the colors and artwork specified are applied and then clear coated. After they have been cured they are sanded again and 2 more coats of House of Kolor clear are applied. After this they are baked, cut, buffed and checked for any imperfections before being packaged and shipped back for you to enjoy.  All fenders are undercoated with 3M undercoating.

Progress Reports  You will notified by e-mail with pictures of your projects progress.

Frame Repair  We have a specially designed frame machine for motorcycle frame repair. Rates are as follows:

Setup and Gauge $150
Repair and or replace damaged section $60 per hour plus materials.
     
All replacement welds are tig-welded by a certified welder.

S hipping and Handling  There is no handling charge, you pay only for shipping.

Payment  A deposit is required on all work. A deposit amount will be determined once a figure has been reached. Final payment is due once the job is completed and readied for shipping.

O ther Things we do  We can pretty much paint on anything, big trucks, race cars, street rods, helmets, surfboards, hoods, bicycles, computer covers, airplanes, motor homes or whatever.

Warranties  Our work is backed by a limited lifetime warrantee against material defects, meaning, if there is a problem that is our fault, we will fix it at our expense, if there is a problem that is your fault or responsibility, we will fix it at your expense. As with anything, proper care is the responsibility of the owner. We can tell you the the best way to keep your paint looking good for years to come.
