How much is it to fix bubbling paint on a car?
My son’s 16th birthday is in a few weeks. I want to give him the truck I use to plow during the winter. I want to get the vehicle detailed and cleaned up before giving it to him, but how much does it cost to repair bubbling car paint?

That sounds like a great birthday gift. I’m sure your son will love it!
In general, it costs anywhere from $50 to a few hundred dollars to fix a small section of bubbling paint, but if the bubbling is more widespread, you’ll need to repaint the entire car.
Repainting a car
costs anywhere from $300 to $1,000. However, the price will vary, depending on your vehicle’s make and model and the paint you use. If the cost to fix the bubbling paint professionally is a bit much, you can fix it at home in just a few hours by sanding away the problematic areas, applying body filler if necessary, and repainting the area.
