Ok lets see, the color in the first picture was $320 a bottle (6oz) x 4= $1,260, threre quarts of clear base coat binder to be able to spray that color $140, reducer $90gal, 2pints of black $50, 1gal of clear coat $190, hardner $60, then you have to add in sandpaper, masking paper, tape, cleaning, gloves, towels, thiner to clean the gun, ect. $1,790 for paint materials, but PPG gives me a great deal so I did not pay that much
