me dad did it all, fans were..........£30 each, mdf was cheep cos it was off cuts from local mdf plant, strips lights were mainly sourced from on the farm in places, its prob come to 400ish(GUESSING) i guess with all paints, screws, plastic, lights, electrics etc etc etc!! dad paided for most of it i just paid for fans and stuff then i pay him for each job i do!!

so he gets summit back also!

Finished effot looking good, and nice and quick2 which i was what people like.

and with the set up you have, you could EASY do that full time,

Just dont undercut urself with price as at the end of the day, good work is worth paying for and not many people can do that sort of stuff (properly)

sorry dude, but i have got all that info as i am uni, saw it in aftermarket ages ago

they r just like the normal polythene sheets but have a static charge to them which supposodly attracts the dust to the sheets and away from the paint.

sorry cant be much more help
