So what I think I am looking at is a hood that was blasted to bare metal, etched, and has a coat of catalyzed primer sealer on it? Still to be done is build primer, blocking, maybe more build primer and blocking to get to final color? It looks like it is in DP 90 or a tinted primer sealer of another make by the sheen. Was the hood perfect or did the metal need to be worked before the primer sealer? I have painted only 1 34, my sedan delivery I had years ago, and it IS a ton of work. I am not a professional but have had reasonable success. Good work takes a LOT of time and the pros get things done faster, even with those long louvers. I don't think the total $ is unreasonable to get it to this stage.
