If you getting runs you prob putting too much on at once or not cleaned the primed surface properly and its running off the grease ect maybee even mixing the paint wrong. I build up over lots and lots of thin layers.

Body shop costs will depend on the panel size, how much prep work they have to do and the finish you are after(paint type/cost etc). I had a complete Escort MK4 soft top resprayed, bad boy bonnet, delocked etc for 300 quid about 5 years ago.Then again you could spend that alone on the paint for some cars.
