MG TD TF 1500 - Paint Prices

Paint prices are going out of sight! Most know I'm having my TF painted Jaguar Regency Red. Now even though all costs are included in my contract price for the whole job, I found out two days ago that the Jag Regency Red is made up of 5 colors with just a drop of Pearl. For 1 gallon the cost is $900.00!
What in Gods creation is this world coming to! If there's any left over, I think I'll bring it home and put it in a vault! Can you store paint in a safety deposit box? PJ

Sounds like a Calif price :-)

Red is one of the most expensive colors, due to the pigments.

Paul,

Is that BC CC or a 2 part paint?

Do you have a picture of a finished Jag or any car?

Jim, It's urethane and gets three coats over the primer. PJ
