Paint price?
 
Just bought a quart of Bright Red enamel (PPG) this morning, cost $50. I almost Sh'##! Is Dupont, or any of the other brands any cheaper? I have always used PPG in the past, but holy moly, I'm not the richest guy around, going to have to switch brands? Whats everyone else using and paying?

...I haven't bought paint in a long while, but that actually sounds about right.

Wally World $.99 a can specials is the only way to go cheaper.

That is a normal price for enamel. Especially for red. They typically run higher.

5 yrs. later
 
Last time I bought this very same color RED, a quart was $25. 5 yrs. later its double! Hard to believe. Price of bump and paint is crazy, no wonder so many vehicles get totalled out by the insurance companies, when they actually could be repaired.
