Thread: "HONCHO" material list.....

  1. #1
    BILLY.B
    For all of you who think these paint jobs are over the top in cost......Here is the paint list that I have for the "Honcho". This list does not include the sandpaper or the materials for the colorsand & rub out phase of this job.
    1. 1 gallon of black.
    2. 3 quarts of silver (base coat)
    3. 2 pints of Aztec Gold concentrate
    4. 1 pint of Tangerine concentrate
    5. 6 jars of silver miniflake
    6. 3 gallons of midcoat clear (DBC 500)
    7. 10 gallons of reducer (mid temp/slow)
    8. 5 1/2 gallons of clear
    9. 1 1/2 gallons of hardner
    10. 7 rolls of 2" 3M tape
    11. 18 rolls of 3/4 " "
    12. 17 rolls of 1/4" blue fineline (3M)
    13.5 rolls of 1/8" blue fineline (3M)
    14. TON'S of labor. The sanding between all the coats of clear and the spraying of the clear to get the flake smooth so you can lay out the graphics is time consuming and Jerry has been involved in alot of this sanding. So if you want to flake a boat be prepared for a material bill that isn't wallet friendly.

    GD thats ALOT of clear and flake.This includes the bottom of the boat which looks just as nice as the top. Bottom was also colorsanded and rubbed out. My list doesn't include the 2 1/2 gallons of epoxy primer and 1 gallon of acetone that were also needed. On how much clear this job took....Do you want the job done or done right????!

    I don't eat the carrots unless your there. I wouldn't want to diss a buddy by having those carrots and then telling him about while on the phone with him . As far as the fries...Not so much. May not look like it but I eat the chicken tacos and steal a couple of fries from the "Bolt Nazi".

    So if I read between the lines, a paint job of this caliber would be in the 5,000.00 to 7000.00 range? I can see that. Especially with the labor not included in those earler lists. Really love the work B man...it's impressive.

And to think brother Lou thinks your cheap :idea: ...Amazing!!!:sqeyes:
