Paint price?
Just bought a quart of Bright Red enamel (PPG) this morning, cost $50. I almost Sh'##! Is Dupont, or any of the other brands any cheaper? I have always used PPG in the past, but holy moly, I'm not the richest guy around, going to have to switch brands? Whats everyone else using and paying?

...I haven't bought paint in a long while, but that actually sounds about right.

Re: Paint price?
That is a normal price for enamel. Especially for red. They typically run higher.

5 yrs. later
Last time I bought this very same color RED, a quart was $25. 5 yrs. later its double! Hard to believe. Price of bump and paint is crazy, no wonder so many vehicles get totalled out by the insurance companies, when they actually could be repaired.
