NOTE: Blend labor time does not apply to two-tone refinish or custom non-OEM refinish. No overlap deduction applies to blended panel(s)/refinish area(s).
NOTE: When calculated, the estimate will allocate 40% from the total blend time and apply it to the three stage line item. The total sum of the blend line and the amount allocated in the three stage line will total 70% of the exterior refinish time for the panel being blended.
Example: A panel refinish time is 2.0 hrs. When blended, the refinish time for that panel will be displayed as 1.4 (.7 per refinish hour). Once calculated, the refinish blend line will be displayed as .8 and .6 (40%) will be allocated to the three stage line.
