How much should a paint job cost?

All in how good you are... I know a number of auto body and paint guys around here.. Some make BANK, while others have to live with their parents....

If you work your ass off you can make good money but auto body shops kick your ass.

I've only helped out a couple times... No way in hell I'd do it for a career.. It's a great thing to know though.
 
My buddy thats done body work is a little touched in the head......he attributes it to years of breathing paint fumes, clear fumes and thinner fumes
 
Im a service writer at a shop in Ohio.

Full paint jobs run 5k-6k on trucks. So $4500 isnt bad. Just make sure everything gets taken off before it gets painted or it will peel later
