First time posting here.
My landlord has asked me to paint his enclosed motorcycle trailer but I am not sure what to charge him. I do not own a body shop and will be renting a paint booth when the trailer is prepped for paint. It is a two tone fiberglass trailer. The top is black and bottom is silver and has a few cracks. It will be clear coated as well. I will attach a link of the picture of the exact same trailer just not the same color. I called a few maaco shops to get an idea of an estimate but they do not paint trailers. Also local bodyshops don't do estimates over the phone. Any help is greatly appreciated!
