Steel flares !! So for those of you who have done this, how many hours would a shop typically take ready for paint ? I am going to just say done correctly start to finish ready for paint 6 hours per corner.. The welding and grinding are about half of that. Then metal finish, filler, primer, block out.. |

I am going to just say done correctly start to finish ready for paint 6 hours per corner... At least 10 hours per corner - butt TIG welded, welds ground flat and hammered smooth, ready for filler/primer/paint. The bottom edges need substantial alteration to fit correctly. |
