cmoney23 Posted June 5, 2012 Report Share Posted June 5, 2012 How much do you guys think a 5 gal. bucket of arrival blue paint is worth? I can get it for free from my buddy. Im asking because he lives 3 hours from me. So would it be worth it to drive 6 hours to get it for free????? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cmoney23 Posted June 5, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 5, 2012 I just checked paintscratch.com and they wanted $1,735 for 5 gallons of arrival blue metallic... So i guess im gonna go get it tomorrow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shawnss Posted June 5, 2012 Report Share Posted June 5, 2012 Yes its worth the drive. With that amount of paint you could paint a few trucks. Paint isn't cheap. I just paint $45.00 for a pintto match my box. That wasn't even the best paint out. So yeah you couldn't come close to getting that paint for 1k out the door.

Downeast Johnny Posted June 5, 2012 Report Share Posted June 5, 2012 Sounds like a good deal, Cmoney. It is in the original, unopened, container right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmoney23 Posted June 6, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2012 Well he works in a factory and mixes paint all day. So i got him the paint code for arrival blue and he mixed it himself, 5 gallons worth. Not sure what u mean by an original unopened container....

gmJake Posted June 6, 2012 Report Share Posted June 6, 2012 Didn't we do this thread already about knowing a guy that mixes free paint? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cmoney23 Posted June 6, 2012 Author Report Share Posted June 6, 2012 Didn't we do this thread already about knowing a guy that mixes free paint? Yeah thats when i was tossing around the idea of maybe getting it. I really didnt know how much that much paint is actually worth. Never bought paint in bulk before. And its 3 hours from me. Hell of a drive there and back, so i think im commited to go get it now. Plus i thought i could help a few members out that need some arrival blue paint to maybe paint there engine covers, the rest of their mirrors, maybe their dash piece or sub box or who knows what...
