The Golden Gate bridge is a beautiful orange color. But how much does it cost to paint?

Painting the bridge is a continuous process. A crew of 45 dedicated painters work on it year-round

In 2023 alone, they used over 4,000 gallons of paint! The paint comes from Sherwin Williams

The paint alone costs about $300,000 per year! But the total labor cost is way, way higher
