If you DO NOT know every step of the process, and can supervise the work to insure that it is being done properly, you should stick with a paint shop that you trust to do the job right. Naturally it costs more to do the job right.
If you just want to save money and do not really care how long the paint job lasts, then go with the cheapest price, whether it is in Mexico or the USA. I saw one paint job done in Mexico($6000) and it looked equivalent to an Econo "$199 to paint your car" paint job. It was obvious that they used cheap materials and did very poor body prep.
This is true EVERYWHERE, USA or Mexico. Have seen a lot of bad paint job in USA. That said, I have also seen/known a lot of RVers very happy with there Mexico job. Mexico uses the same company products as USA! Even members of the local classic car club in the Tucson area take their classics to Nogales, Son., Mexico for paint jobs.

That is why I said it is not a problem IF you know the difference between a good paint job and a bad one and that YOU can supervise the entire process.
