Oh! gee that's a bunch of money! When opening the lid of a new can of paint, like I painted my dash with~ is sooo pretty! I use a supplied air breathing system when painting and even when mixing, but is it just me, or do paint fumes smell kind of good?
I feel I got off kind of light then on what I spent at Ken Braults auto paint, 220.oo for a quart of color, a quart of clear, catalyst, reducer and cups, etc. The guys there are so helpful! I've painted a few things over the past, but seems like the first time when putting it all together again and my garage is too small! I'm tired! lol ; )

Mine has the same drive train as yours on a stock TF frame.
Denee, 1100 a gallon for the metal flake red is not bad. some of the paints I have been looking at are 1500-1800 a gallon for the base.
