Maveric ; Truck is in the near future. you make it sound so easy "just spray it" our trailers original factory paint was not a good job as it was not adhering well so the guys had to take it to bare metal on about 75% of the whole trailer with razor blades. The prep to do a good paint job is the key to a good job and very time and labor intensive. "Shooting" is the easiest part.
We don't do campgrounds. We are a Race track management team (wife and I) so stay onsite wherever we are. We have a home base in Ok. When we travel we have friends around the country that have tracks so we choose to stay there generally.

Superbird: Single stage should be a lot less material. We looked a new single stage that Dupont came out with that is a sister to the Imron line but doesn't have same amount of color choices. High gloss and durable. Once again you get what you pay for. We chose to go base/clear because of color choices and easier to do multiple colors as well as use a higher end clear for durability. The shop we used actually had 2 painters (one on each side) and a mixing/gun loading guy that started about noonish and finished the trailer around 3am. the following morning.

PS to all: thank you for your compliments
