ed,
i wouldnt even bother with the acrylic because 2 pac isnt that much dearer.
this is roughly what it cost me doing a full bare metal respray minus the cost of some tools i had to buy
$50 - sand paper (yes those sticky disc are quite pricey)
$100 - $150 for thinners, wax and grease remover
$60 - etch primer (4L)
$60 - bog (my first time usin this stuff so alot went to waste. car was pretty dented though)
$15 - cutting/grindin discs for repairin rust
$150 - 2 pack high build spray filler (5L includin hardener and compatible thinners - $30)
$120 - another 5 ltrs of spray filler (yes that car was pretty bad)
$400 - materials the spray painter used + a few materials i used while i was sandin the car at the spray painters
$250 - labour the spray painter charged me
----------------------------------
$1205 - total cost of materials (including spray painter labour)
i would assume that if ure existing paint wasnt that bad, u could cut the cost back dramatically this is what ide do if my paint was in ok condition
1.take of big stuff like bumpers etc.
2.fix rust and bog dents to 90% perfection (if nessecary)
3.sand back whole car with 180 grit paper
4.apply 2pac high build spray filler
5. guide coat and rub back with 180 grit till black(guide coat) is rubbed away
6. wet sand back with 400 - 600 grit paper
7. apply colour and clear
so it might cost u something like this
$15 - bog
$20 - sand paper
$150 - 2 pack high build spray fill + compatible thinners
$300 - colour and clear (2pac)
$50 - other consumables
--------------
$535 - total assuming u have all tools + equiptment
