Personally I think any decent case painting should take anywhere between 3-5 days. That's just my personal opinion though. My impatient nature usually hacks that number up from 3-5 days to 3-5 hours. The results of the 3-5 day job usually surpass that of the 3-5 hour and withstands alot more beating.

I agree...Prep, it's all about the prep....
