The Cost of Paint Jobs

painting a car takes a day or so..but all the preparation to get to the paint takes weeks of sanding straightening and repairing small dents rust etc. the cost of materials are out the roof. it depends on how good a job you want. nice show quality works takes time. and most people want paid for there time...i still like color sanded and buffed laquer jobs. you could do em yourself..the good old days were fun.. i dont see quality like i used too. stickers versus hand painted lettering. and so on..$6000 would be a good deal for a truely nice job. in todays world..
