That sounds kinda low, I painted my civic milano red and it cost over $400 american just for the paint and clear. That's not including primer, etc.

The milano red form the 5th gen EX is a tri-coat system. Which means there is a color base, a color clear, and then the clear. Thats why it is so expensive to do.

oh so u think its best to do tri coat? a base coat and then a mixture of color and clear, and than the clear?

would it really matter if i dont do tri coat, and just lay down the color and than the clear coat on top?

thanks

400? well the $180 i said is just for the milano red paint, the clear is seppret. so more money for that too, but im not buying the clear, the guy painting it has the clear him self which he will include to the cost of it.
