Cost to paint a GMT400 RC, and or a full RCLB

[GM Guy]

hey guys, I was wondering how much it costs to paint a Regular cab long bed GMT400, and as far as my flatbed trucks, how much would it cost to paint the regular cab and front clip?

I dont want show quality, but I would like an OEM or better paint job.

also, what is a good paint for the above requirements?

That can range WIDELY! Lots of variables. How much prep work...ect. Sometimes its better to ask what can I afford/how much can I pay. Then start from there compairing apples to apples.
I will say I just painted mine with top of the line Glasurit base and clear. Just the primers/paints were over $1000. Did it myself so save quite a bit of $$
You can for sure get cheaper materials though.

Best way to find out is to drop by a shop with your truck.

Anything else is a WAG.....

Is the paint pealing with the typical water biased primer failure? If so the only way to do it right is to strip it to the bare metal and start over. Otherwise it will keep flaking with the new paint.

I painted mine for about $20.00 with rattle cans. Just to stop any rust...
