Paint is cheap. It's the labor for prep and painting that drives the cost.
It depends on your definition of "cheap." Some of our paints can run as high as $1200 per gallon. We recently repainted a 208B for a gent on the East Coast who wanted it a certain metal flake added to the mixture of Sherwin Williams...that cost him around $1800 per gallon.
And I am fairly sure that the crew that did the prep and paint were paid a bit more than minimum wage. How many staff hours went into that paint job? That is what I meant by paint is 'cheap'.
How many gallons??
