With water. In the age of the original absinthe fever, the drink was always diluted with water and sweetened with sugar before consumption. First, a cube of sugar was placed on a perforated spoon resting on the top of a glass of neat absinthe.
I had a minivan with paint on the hood and roof gone. The Maaco guys quoted ~$500 for their basic probably crappy paint on the whole car. I asked how much for the hood, he said $800 because he would have to match the paint and then apply clearcoat.
Costs range all over the place, depending on the paint used and who paints it; as well as the degree of preparation (including disassembly) you do. There is a place in Winter Haven FL, (Econo Car) that says, Paint any car, $150.. Across the street (at Arrington's), it'll cost you maybe $6000 for the same car.
