hours to paint a 2 tone
67 Camaro with new metal. How many hours for prep and paint with a 2 tone scheme? Got a estimate that scared 3 years of my life:willy: :willy: :willy: :willy: :wow:
|
Even though it usually take 230 to 250 hours, We charge 200 hours AFTER sheetmetal and rough in bodywork (After quarter seams, patches, dents, roughed in 80%) for paint. Two tones will only add up to 8 hours
|
Hourly rate for paint
is there a different hourly rate for paint jobs or is it the same as regular shop rates? What's an average shop rate?
|
Depends on what part of the country you are. here in Florida your looking at $50 to $80, we are $60. In Cali, $80 to $100+, Back woods of Tenn, $30 to $40?
|
Frank would you consider moving to Tenn...I like those rates!! :D :cheers:

200 hours plus materials, Frank?

Plus materials Kevin. That is just hours. There is no way to trim it, a car will take 5 to 6 man weeks to ready for paint, paint, buff, detail, etc after sheetmetal. We just did a car from sheetmetal to paint in 11 days, it is all on video. Taht 11 days was 2 1/2 guys working 50 hours a week, and then another man week to sand and buff, trunk renew, under body, etc.
there is a little bit of in efficency in having people triping over one another, so the total hours are a little more then one guy doing it, but are still right in that 200 to 250 range |
That's what I was figuring. You guys have been moving on that car!
