Then sand sum more and Buff.
And sum of them paint jobs your lookin @ that you think are 10K
Guess again-----20K +++++
I remember about 20 years ago I read about it being possible for a paint job to go to $50K. I thought that was ridiculous, since I was getting about $2500 for a good job. Now I'm in the $5-$10K range, for the same work. As the cost of materials goes up...the value of the dollar goes down....and my "cost to survive" goes up....I think I have changed my mind. Still, if it's not affordable to enough people, enthusiasts will look for "cheap" alternatives. Hey!... That's already happening! :-)
