>well the body is pretty close to perfect, it has just been
repainted. i.e. the guy i bought it off had painted it and then he sold it to
me. The paint is just not perfect, looks burnt and scuffed in places etc. Hard
to explain.

>Anyway, it has a proper coat of acrylic, solid midnight blue
from ford...which is actually purple. So i would have to go back to primer to
do 2pak right? i mean i couldn't paint 2 pak over the acrylic paint?

> hi, if you go to 2pak u dont have to go back to bare metal, in
fact u can use 2pak straight over acrylic primer. its better if u use 2 pak
primer as well, cause it fills a heck of alot better than acrylic primer
etc.... all u have to do is grind back any body work that has crows feet,
lifting body filler, flacking paint etc..... i am not too sure on the price on
2 pack primer, but i think that its about 150-200 dollars for 4 litres
including hardner, but depends alot on brand.
> as for how much it would all cost depends onb the condition of
car. large tin of body filler is around 35-45 dollars, then you have paper
etc...
> use 36 grit to get a decent shape of bog, then go over it with
80 or 120 dry rub then put primer over that.
> i use a longboard with the 36 grit on that.

tell me if i am wrong, How much should i pay for the labour and
paint....assuming that i don't use a booth?
