The $5,800.00 mistake

As i read this it does make me laugh. $5800 for a touch up would be way to high but a touch up, re-clear the entire car, cut and buff. I don think its to out of line. Cost of materials is not what is bad on this one its the hours that its gonna take to do. Hell I spent 3-4 hours on buffing and re buffing and wet sanding and rebuffing and trying to blend tape lines. So you figure roughly $100 an hour for a good shop to do finish work and the cost skyrockets really fast. If your gonna do it just make sure that they save a little paint for the next time.
