I need to repaint my daughters 84 Spree (see all my previous questions . By the time I buy 'good' paint (Spraymax 2K, or Plutonium, or PPG aerosol), the adhesion promoter, degreaser prep, sandpaper, masking tape, clear coat, etc, I will be in well over $100 before I even start.
What has been anyones experience with the cost of a professional repaint of all panels? It's pretty basic; I plan to do the standard Cortina White but another color on some parts, the only masking required would be on the the side panels and the headlight shell. Thanks!

Re: Range of costs for professional paint jobs?
My guys charged $350. That was, repairing all tabs, re-enforcing older plastic with epoxy, 2 tone paint theme, etc, etc... That was at a rate of $50 per hour, plus parts,paint, etc. Not much to em really, the only hard part was taking the front fender off. But, gave me an excuse to have the bearings re-greased.

The color red is at least a 100 bucks for a quart. Red is the most expensive color.
Cost me a hundred bucks for the paint. I did the work myself.
