How much do you charge for placing glass beads?

as much as you can get. it depends on your market. for me, thats about 25% extra, from the "no beads" price

I would say standard application is 6-8 lbs per gallon of paint sprayed. If you get 320 ft per gallon of paint you can get it close this way. The most difficult thing to do is calibrate your bead dispenser so you don't dump the whole load in 15' $$$$$gone

I agree with Salty. 25% above nonreflective is about what I charge.
