I OWN A BODY SHOP AND HAVE 9 TECHS WHO PAINT. I AM A TOTAL PAINT NERD AND HAVE A FIT EACH DAY CHECKING PAINT WORK. THIS IS SO IMPORTANT TO DO A PERFECT JOB. ALL MATERIALS MUST BE ACTIVATED FROM START TO FINISH (NO AIR DRY MATERIALS). I WOULD EXPECT AN AVERAGE PAINT JOB TO START ABOUT $5000.00 WITH MATERIALS. IT COULD EASLY GO TO $8000.00 IF YOU ARE CONCIDERING HAVING A SHOP DO A PAINT JOB INSIST ON SEEING A CUSTOMERS CAR THEY HAVE COMPLETED, ASK ABOUT WARANTEE, AND MAKE THEM GIVE YOU A LARGE TEST PANEL TO LOOK AT IN THE SUN AND TO TAKE HOME SO YOU CAN SEE HOW THE QUALITY OF THE PAINT WILL LOOK. COMPARE THIS TO THE FINISHED PRODUCT. I GIVE ALL MY CUSTOMERS A 2 FOOT SQUARE SAMPLE TO TAKE HOME AND SIGN IT. THEN WE ALL KNOW THAT WE AGREED ON THE EXACT COLOR AND QUALITY OF THE FINISHED JOB. THIS IS A GREAT WAY TO LOOK AT STRIPE SAMPLES TOO. GOOD LUCK ON YOUR CAR. QUESTIONS E-MAIL ME AT
