Normally for primer and two coats of paint about .80 cents per square foot.

What you might charge can vary a lot depending on the location. So, knowing the location of the job would be helpful. Also, there are a lot of other factors that need to be known about the paint job, such as, the total number square feet to be painted. And, the following short list. Are the surface areas to be painted all perfectly smooth and not textured in any way? What kind of repairs, if any might need to be made to the surfaces to be painted? Will you be rolling or spraying this paint job?

If you look down at the bottom of this page, you will see links to questions that have been similar to yours. You might want to click on them to see what the answers have been.

Also, if you would provide some additional specifics on this thread as to what is involved in the job about which you are inquiring, I'm sure that we would be able to help you here.
