Good afternoon everyone,
How much should I budget for a paint job? My car was origionally blue and one of the previous owners repainted it red. I would like to go back to the factory blue. I was thinking about sanding down to the origional blue paint or should I just let them add another layer. Thanks DAvid |

I've done all the rust repair, body work and paint work on my cars. It's not the kind thing you want to get involved in unless you've had some experience at it. You will pretty much get what you pay for and that can be a lot! I have hundreds of hours of work just in the paint prep. It's very labor intensive and takes a lot of skill. Ray
