I leave my car at gan motor spray last two week for whole body repaint as my car was 10years and alots of door dent since I bring my car to KL this few years. Boss is friendly, and price is reasonable. But last sat evening i go took my car it look new from far away. When i walk near i can see the whole paint job are not that smooth. I can notice the whole car with orange peel effect.

I ask the mr.gan , he told me it was because of thick clear coat no need to worry. Feel so eye sore every time look at it under sunlight.

What should I do? Polished it? Or bring back to mr.gan?

any pictures?

might be worth asking a detailer for an opinion....

Any recommended paint shop in JB or Batu Pahat?

maybe i was too picky? how you think about it.

After look back to original paint also have minor orange peel effect, maybe i was too picky for it.

Picky......nop, you are not. Can get better then this.

Just got my car from Gan's place. Owner is courteous and serious about his work. Whole left side of car (cerato) painted for 1200 within 7 days.

Mind share some picture after the paint job?

My car was send in for two weeks (honda accord) for full exterior repaint. I saw alot of forumers recommended Gan that why i bring my car to his workshop. Did not expected for this result. I did ask Gan why it look like that when i go to collect my car, he told me he spray thicker clear coat. Under soft light the surface just not look smooth.

Mind to share, how much the cost for minor scratch?

The orange peel effect, are you referring to the unevenness in paint coat under the bright light?

any shop recommended around kajang or bangi or semenyih?

Yup thick clear coat, you can polish it away

Then can be save if polish?

That not call orange peel effect?
Yes the unevenness under bright light, actually soft light bring out unevenness more obvious.

glad to hear this. Just google it, yes it can remove by sanding and polished but the clear coat will be very thin.


Seem like orange peel effect are normal from factory, check the paint inside my car there are some orange peel effect too from factory.
And my nissan teana ori paint also have the orange peel effect when look close up just not so notice-able from far away.
I think just let it be, cant judge too much since repaint are done hand not robot, use for 1 or 2 years then just polish it since my car not use for show car.

Recently, i have sent my car to gan motorsport for full body repaint due to the good reviews here. There's no denying that the paint work is excellent and just fyi, they are using doupont paint which is a good quality paint. Btw my car is bmw f30. The quoted price was rm3000 plus repairs. (i had many dents and scratches). Maybe it's their first time doing a bmw f30 full body paint but i noticed there's a lot of bents and dents caused by improper technique of removing the trims. Literally ALOT. With scratches on the windshield and side mirror. Plus buffer marks. At first i was impressed with the paint quality but these imperfections makes me a bit disappointed. I would rate 3/5.

And so the other day i sent my car for coating and the people there point out paint defect due to improper painting. There are quite a few defects. The kind of defects you won't notice unless you carefully inspect the paint. Haha so I'm quite dissatisfied and disappointed to be honest. Haih

Mind to share photos? I thought of going to Gan to repaint my 2 door panels but seems like quite a few are not satisfied with the paint job.

They will charge you a booming price for the same service and quality you can get outside, so what for going to them?

resprayed whole car exterior for my altis. Slightly more than 3k... Outside more or less also right

any shop recommended around klang area
