I just had the interior of my 8A painted. I supplied the paint. The painter had to sandblast the "powder coat" off the roll bar, seat back weldment, gear mounts, and some other pieces. They sprayed a coat of primer over the existing old coat and applied a coat of PPG.
The bill was $1445!!! Along with the cost of the paint and primer that makes the total cost about $1800 !!!!
In retrospect two words are running around inside my head......rattle can!
I would be interested in knowing how much the rest of you guys paid to have the interior of your planes painted. Those of you who are considering having someone else paint the interior should be aware of the cost in making your decision. I should have probably set an upper limit on the cost with the painter before he began...it was my bad for not doing so.
