Black paint on fiberglass

[gene giambona]

DD,

There are two days that black car owners are the happiest...the day they pick up a new or freshly painted black car and the day they sell it!

I own a black car and boy does everything show..fingerprints, pollen (you won't need a calendar to know when spring has arrived), dust, fine polishing scratches etc. BUT>>> Nothing looks more striking than a perfectly laid down deep black paint job! Go with the black color you always wanted and be sure to not skimp on the clear coat if you decide to go with a two stage.

Concerning paint jobs, I recently learned that red paint will cost you more than any other color (with the exception of those crazy candies and color shifting paints). So a red paint job will have more material costs associated with a paint job, but a black paint job will probably have more labor costs to get the body perfectly laid down prior to paint.

When it came time to pick a color combination for my Cobra, I went with the super rare blue and white stripe route so that I really stand out among the Cobra crowd.
