Realise this is 'how long's a piece of string' type question, but can't get a quote until next week and just to give the other party a v rough idea as he doesn't want to go via insurance.

Bad scuffing on 3 panels in non metallic white on an old Focus. There's a body line it could blended into.

For a good job I would be prepared for somewhere close to £800 inc VAT.

belleair302 is closer if you ask me, for sikkens or akso paint and a top notch job that's roughly on the money. Being that it's solid white though, I'd hope to arrive at 4-500.

Of course you could get it done for a bit less but quality paint and oven time is generally worth it.

My thoughts are that because it is on three panels there is way more labour than just a door or bonnet respray. Therefore prep and materials will be higher and the costs will be more than a £500 job. Also depends where you are.....
