Respraying cars cheaply here is done on an industrial scale, principally by Maaco. It’s cheap, but looks it.
Bikes are another realm, a niche in which you need to charge a lot to make any money at all. Rent, prep and materials add up quick. I don’t know any painters here that would accept you prepping the bike for them - they usually have their own specific process, and don’t like the customer trying to cut corners for them.
There was a time not long ago, you could get a frame sand blasted and powder coated locally for well under hundred quid. I Cant remember exact price now.
Once you get into multi colours and lots of masking and even fadez price rapidly escalates.
