Sure , for a bare metal show quality paint job, you're right. It's a lot less if you don't have to go to bare metal. If you're going all the way, every primer coat should sit for 30 days between sandings. I think on a Berlina, it will be awhile before anyone does that kind of job. Giulietta and Giulia Spiders are worth putting that kind of paint money into. Stevan In a message dated 11/5/2012 2:13:38 P.M. Pacific Standard Time, [email protected] writes:

Just to do a bare metal repaint of my 1988 Corniche due only to paint cracking (no rust nor bodywork), set me back $22k. Materials were $5k. -- to be removed from alfa, see http://www.digest.net/bin/digest-subs.cgi or email "unsubscribe alfa" to [email protected]
