Seems like a lot for sure Biff but yea even way out here that's about right. Everything is expensive The last time I bought new spray guns they were 600 each and they last about a year if you use them a lot, now the same or about is 1200 each. we mix our own paint and is normal for a quart of mixing color to cost 300 more or less. Almost better off buying a new car or doing all the work and paint it yourself.
