[928uk] 928 bare metal respray

[Michael Parris]

Your quote would change a lot if you can find one at £50 per hour.
I presume that includes taking apart and refitting everything or are you
doing that yourself?
(That's about a half a week to take it apart, glass out and a week to put
it back together) on top of I reckon 120-150 hours for non-bare metal paint
Price of paint and materials is a little bit high, but it depends on
colour, paint type and amount of stages.
This sort of skill is not cheap these days to have it done properly and you
want it to last another 30 odd years.
