Where do you get off paying just $500 per gallon? I hear that a gallon of black, reducer and hardener will cost me a tad over $750 here in mid California.

$750 a gallon? I was only concerned with what was in the paint can of color. I wasn't counting the reducer, hardener or etc.. All the more reason to thoroughly mix your paint. Some of the just "colors" go well over $1,000 a gallon, but I doubt that very many of us would be using those exotic paints on our model A Fords.

Sounds about right 1 gt PPG DMC 921 - 1 gt of primer PPG DP 50LF - pint of catalyst and 8oz of hardner and gallon of reducer 1 year ago was $357.57 in Jackson ca . was unable to buy this type of paint in El Dorado County .
