what are you painting first of all?

Get your paint at your local automotive paint supplier.
DuPont auto paint is approx $45 per pint.

If painting metal, I would suggest etching primer.

You will need a pint of black on Ford code UA (PPG 9700) which will be around $40 and a pint of clear for another $40 or so. Plus you need to have a HPLV spray gun, hoses, and a high volume air compressor. Not to mention, you will need to get some primer, sandpaper in various grits, and everything needed to polish the finish down, which will be another $50-75.


I would start calling around shops to get a price. Should be between $100-200.
