“Refinish Complete Bed Assy Including Tailgate” does not include labor to refinish the underside bed assembly. A separate refinish selection needs to be added from the Mitchell database.
Depending on the paint manufacturer, the underside refinish may require a flattened or matte clear to be used over the underside color for additional protection. This is not an included operation and the clear coat labor for the underside would need to be manually entered following the clear coat formula in the CEG guide under page 28 Refinish Section.
Material Costs for refinish are NOT INCLUDED in the labor allowances.
The estimating databases are all intended to be used as a GUIDE ONLY – it is important to remember that the auto body professional performing the repair is in a position to thoroughly inspect, diagnose and identify the methodology and their unique cost of the vehicle damage repair.
