I do like my polished fuselage, but I am considering getting the plane painted to reduce some of the very labor intensive upkeep. Any idea of what it would cost to paint a T-28 or who would be good to do it? Just looking at options - all advice welcome.
thanks

We're pretty happy with the work done by Elmo and Terry at Avsource West in Midland.

How labor intensive is your upkeep and what methods are you using?
