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: Within our electronic product, when calculated, the estimate will allocate 20% from the total blend time and apply it to the clear coat line item. The total sum of the blend line and the amount allocated to the clear coat line will total 50% 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 1.0 (.5 per refinish hour). Once calculated, the refinish blend line will be displayed as .8 and .2 (20%) will be allocated to the clear coat line.
